Night closure during final asphalt works
Final road surfacing is bringing overnight traffic restrictions to San Pedro Alcántara.
The reform of Avenida Lorenzo Morito Romero in San Pedro Alcántara has reached its final stage, with asphalt works now under way.
Traffic is being cut between the roundabout on the A-397 used to access the street and the bridge linking with Avenida Tomás Pascual. The closure operates from 22.00 to 06.00 until 12 November.
Residents living on the affected section can enter or leave their homes in a regulated manner, following instructions from the operatives on site.
Alternative route for La Quinta traffic
Drivers from northern La Quinta have a stated alternative towards Nueva Andalucía and San Pedro.
Those travelling from the northern area of La Quinta are advised to use Avenida Tomás Pascual and Calle Cristóbal Colón to reach Nueva Andalucía, then continue towards San Pedro or Marbella.
The route is particularly relevant during the hours when the affected section is closed. Drivers should follow local signs and the directions of road workers around the works area.
What the wider renovation includes
The project combines upgraded surfacing, pedestrian safety measures, lighting and communications infrastructure.
The renovation includes new paving and asphalt, a safety barrier, raised pedestrian crossings using traffic-calming ramps, and a new LED lighting network.
The work covers 1,150 metres of lighting, 660 metres of telecommunications network, 195 metres of containment barrier and 2,100 square metres of paving. It also includes 6,500 of asphalt, 43 LED luminaires and 40 vertical signs.
Why this matters in Marbella
The closure changes overnight access between San Pedro Alcántara, Nueva Andalucía and Marbella.
For residents and regular users of San Pedro Alcántara, the restriction may affect late-night and early-morning journeys through Avenida Lorenzo Morito Romero. The stated diversion provides a route via Nueva Andalucía towards San Pedro or Marbella.
The project also includes pedestrian, lighting and road-safety improvements, so people living near the works should allow for controlled access while the asphalt is laid.
