The Blog: The highway to ecologist hell
This was not a road protest like those of the past
Llucmajor meet Campos. Campos meet Llucmajor. Neighbours for so long, but only now united by adequate transport communication. Eight kilometres of what is variously described as a dual carriageway, a highway, a motorway. Eight kilometres of new road and safer road, but eight kilometres of high controversy. Eight kilometres that the citizens of both municipalities have generally been in favour of, but not the anti-roads lobby, for whom it is the highway of shame, the highway to ecologist hell. Cue AC/DC.

Half way along the new stretch a road sign tells us we can visit an area dedicated to the historic patrimoni of the area or maybe of the whole island, I haven't had a chance to visit yet. However I would like to know if the approximately 50 overhead lights that illuminate the access junction are part of the patrimoni. This once dark area is going to be lit up like the Easter Fair. I hope no star gazers live nearby.
