The València Provincial Council has opened the main section of the CV-370 road to traffic, connecting Manises and Riba-roja de Túria, to enhance road safety and improve the capacity of this metropolitan link.

The Deputy for Roads and Second Vice-President of the Provincial Council, Reme Mazzolari, explained that this technical opening allows circulation on the main axis of the new platform. This will lead to an immediate improvement in traffic flow while the final works are completed.
Once this project is definitively finished, the Provincial Council will consider requesting the transfer of ownership of the road to the Generalitat. The institution's priority is to focus efforts and investments on secondary and regional roads that connect the territory and provide direct service to smaller municipalities.

"The priority now is for Red Eléctrica to proceed with the removal of the high-voltage electricity towers in the area to finalize the safety improvement works on a road that sees more than 20,000 vehicles pass daily."

Given the scale of the intervention on the CV-370, the Roads department of the València Provincial Council has carried out the works in four distinct phases. The works for this fourth and final phase, with a budget of 12.5 million euros, involve duplicating the carriageway with full access control, separating local and through traffic via service roads.
Access to the Montemayor, el Collado, and La Presa urbanizations will be possible through two roundabouts connected by a new structure beneath which the main road runs. Furthermore, road safety improvements will be reinforced with the construction of a cycle and pedestrian path, extending the section already completed in the first three phases.
The works are completed with drainage and urbanization works, relocation of bus service stops, lighting networks, signage, installation of containment systems, and restoration of affected services, such as the diversion of the drinking water pipeline.
