Irun urban escalators draw attention from British creator

A British content creator has gained viral attention after expressing surprise at the urban infrastructure in Irun, Basque Country. The creator highlighted the presence of outdoor escalators and elevators installed directly in the streets to manage the region's steep terrain.

These vertical mobility systems, including ramps and urban elevators, are designed to help residents navigate the hilly landscape. The infrastructure is particularly intended to assist elderly citizens with daily tasks like grocery shopping, as well as individuals with reduced mobility and families with strollers.
