The Móstoles City Council and the Community of Madrid, through the Móstoles Sur Consortium, have authorized the construction of an access road that will link the PAU-4 neighborhood with the R-5 highway. The decision, made last Friday, includes project approval and the initiation of the works' contracting procedure.

This infrastructure addresses a long-standing demand from residents and is considered crucial for improving mobility within the municipality. The project has a base tender budget of 17,415,914 euros and is designed to reduce congestion on key access routes such as the M-506, A-5, and M-50.

The mayor of Móstoles, Manuel Bautista, highlighted the significance of this advancement for the city and the southwestern Madrid region, calling it "a decisive step towards realizing a strategic and priority infrastructure that the residents of Móstoles have been waiting for years." Bautista linked the project to a substantial improvement in municipal access and a reduction in daily commute times for thousands of citizens.

The approval comes after efforts by the City Council with the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility, including a recent letter from the mayor to Minister Óscar Puente requesting an urgent meeting to unblock the initiative.

Once completed, the new connection will significantly enhance access to PAU-4, contributing to a higher quality of life for residents by reducing travel times and traffic at the city's entrances, making it fundamental for the municipality's urban development and future mobility.
