Canary Islands transport and infrastructure development

Overview

The Canary Islands government is advancing transport management and infrastructure development. Efforts include the creation of a new digital registry for land transport operators, funded by the EU NextGenerationEU programme, which Director General María Fernández stated “represents an important step to continue modernising the management of land transport in the Canary Islands.” Additionally, the Technical Service for Roads and Mobility of Tenerife received the “Sello Reduzco” award for carbon footprint reduction efforts.

Infrastructure expansion is also underway, with authorities in Tenerife seeking 123 million euros for a road project between Icod de los Vinos and La Guancha to complete the northern Insular Ring. This includes plans for the Tigaiga mega-tunnel and highway variants. In Fuerteventura, construction on the new Antigua link has necessitated temporary traffic diversions on the FV-3 road to facilitate connectivity between Puerto del Rosario and several regional routes.
