The Málaga City Council has announced that starting this Monday, May 4, the separation works of the sewer and stormwater networks on San Nicolás street and surrounding areas in the La Malagueta neighborhood (Centro district) are scheduled to begin. The works will be carried out by the Municipal Water Company (Emasa), with an estimated duration of four months and will involve mobility disruptions.

The works have been planned in three phases, so the traffic disruptions will change depending on the progress of the works, including the occupation of parking spaces and sidewalks.

Thus, the first phase includes the section of San Nicolás street between Topete and Marchena streets, lasting one month. During this period, there will be a total traffic cut in that section, although passage from Marchena to San Nicolás will be allowed; as well as a total cut of the Topete section between Paseo de la Farola and Paseo Marítimo Ciudad de Melilla.

The next phase, expected to last one month and three weeks, will cover the section of San Nicolás between Marchena and Faro streets, which will involve a total traffic cut in this section -- passage from Faro to San Nicolás will be allowed --, an auxiliary traffic cut with exclusive access for authorized driveways at the intersection of San Nicolás and Topete; and the reversal of traffic on Marchena street towards Paseo de la Farola to facilitate the exit of vehicles from authorized driveways.

On the other hand, the third phase, lasting one month and one week, includes the section of San Nicolás between Faro and Vélez Málaga streets.

During this period, it is planned to cut traffic in the affected section, continue with the auxiliary cut with exclusive access for authorized driveways at the intersection with Topete street, change the direction of Faro street towards Reding street to facilitate the exit of authorized vehicles, and enable two-way traffic for authorized vehicles in the section of Vélez Málaga street between Reding and San Nicolás. In addition, the reserved area for loading and unloading existing at number 6 of Vélez Málaga street must be relocated.
