Legislation planned to cut car use
The government wishes to reduce the over one million vehicles on roads in the Balearics; some 720,000 of these are cars. Transport minister Marc Pons has presented the draft for sustainable mobility legislation, an aspect of which is the objective of cutting car use. Central to this law will be regulation mechanisms for limiting vehicle access to urban centres and sensitive areas. Town halls, it would appear, will have the right to decide on limitations and restrictions.

Sorry George that was meant to be a green plus rating. I clicked on red negative by mistake!
Extending the train lines especially to the north east coast of Pollença and Alcúdia would help greatly. As long as they put the stations near the urban centres, not miles out like at Muro. Does anyone use that station?
