Urban renovation works in Bilbao

Overview

The Bilbao City Council has initiated urban renovation works on the Betolaza stairs to improve pedestrian mobility, safety, and accessibility. The project, which commenced in August, focuses on the section between portals 114 and 127 and is expected to last approximately three months.

Improvements include repairing cracks and depressions, installing new printed mortar paving, and replacing railings with stainless steel elements to meet modern safety standards. The project also involves constructing a new sidewalk at the base of the stairs featuring ‘Bilbao’ type tiles and tactile paving to enhance visibility and safety.
