The Ministry of Transport activated the technology at the Rocío del Mar-Punta Prima roundabout in May. The roundabout connects the national highway with southern Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and the residential areas of Punta Prima, Rocío del Mar and Señorío de Gomendio. Congestion is also spreading into nearby Calle Arrecife and Calle Pleamar, which many drivers previously used as shortcuts to the roundabout. The longest delays are generally reported on Avenida de Las Olas, followed by the northbound N-332 approaching Torrevieja. Artificial intelligence cannot overcome the roundabout’s fundamental problem: decades of residential and tourism development without sufficient investment in road capacity or alternative public transport.
