Access restrictions to the Formentor road come to an end

Starting yesterday (October 1), these traffic restrictions no longer exist, marked this year by the implementation of control barriers at the accesses to the road from Port de Pollensa and next to the car park at Formentor beach, as well as a number plate reader that registered up until a few weeks ago 20,000 sanctions for non-compliance with restrictions that have been coordinated by the Directorate General of Traffic (DGT) and the Department of Mobility of the Council of Mallorca.

Residents or vehicles with people with reduced mobility were some of the beneficiaries of the permits that were granted to be able to circulate on this road during the closing hours, with the shuttle bus from Alcudia and Pollensa once again being available to travel to the lighthouse. Last summer the restrictions on road traffic were from 15th June to 15th September. Cyclists and hikers were exempt from this measure.

From now until May 31, motor vehicles will once again be able to drive freely and without time restrictions along the Ma-2210, the Formentor road, one of Mallorca's major tourist attractions, which is to be given a break during the summer months in order to avoid the traffic congestion experienced years ago on the busy road that ends at the lighthouse.
