The A-7 motorway connecting branch provides a faster, more direct and secure connection to the Resort.
The opening of the A-7 motorway connecting branch which is being executed by the Ministry of Development marks a milestone in the access to Oliva Nova. Thus, the heavy traffic jams to cross the town centre of Oliva that have been experienced by those coming from the north will be a thing of the past, thanks to a new access from the Mediterranean motorway to the south of the town.
The branch road, announced after the motorway deregulation, has long been claimed by the local residents, who had to put up with the passing of more than 25,000 vehicles a day through the streets of the town of Oliva.
The branch opening has been delayed due to the health situation derived from Covid and is expected to become a reality between the end of the summer and mid-autumn.
From then on, those who want to enjoy the Oliva Nova facilities will be able to get there directly, quickly and without traffic jams, saving almost half an hour’s journey each time.
The passing of vehicles along the notorious N-332, with a stretch of the road crossing the town of Oliva from one end to the other, has not been free of dangers, as the traffic is very intense, with a high accident rate, which will disappear with the new access from the A-7 and, at the same time, Oliva will become a more humane town with many places to discover.
The State Roads Department in Valencia has opened to traffic the new roundabout built for the Oliva South Access to the AP-7 which also connects with the industrial site of that area and the Camí Vell de Dénia.
Traffic on this roundabout must be driven at low speed and with caution, work is still to be completed for this huge Oliva South Access project but is progressing at a good pace and disruption of traffic is taking place to allow heavy machinery access.
This is the prior step to the definitive opening of the junction, which was completed in August and is scheduled to be opened in November 2023.
In fact, not only will it change the traffic in town but also throughout the south of the Safor region, one of the last black spots in the Valencian Road network.
This is the point prior to the definitive opening of the junction, which been inaugurated with great acclaim. This new road is changing traffic in the city and the whole south of the Safor region, one of the last black spots in the Valencian road network.
