Salamanca urban mobility and infrastructure challenges

Overview

Salamanca is experiencing significant urban mobility and infrastructure challenges. The public transportation system has faced a long-term crisis, with reports indicating a loss of approximately 40% of passengers and the cessation of eight routes over the last seven years. Users have cited deteriorated vehicle conditions, overcrowding, and long wait times as primary issues.

In addition to service declines, the city is implementing various urban improvement and maintenance works. These projects are expected to cause major traffic disruptions, including total closures or alterations on several streets such as Ronda Sancti Spiritus and Calle Libreros, as well as lane narrowings on major avenues. The municipal government is currently reviewing mobility studies to address these systemic service and infrastructure issues.
