- Restrictions and road closures will be activated from 3:00 p.m. and will be applied according to the influx of people and traffic flow
Due to the solar eclipse scheduled for 12th August, Calvià Town Hall will implement a special mobility and safety plan to ensure orderly traffic flow, facilitate access for emergency services, and prevent congestion in the main viewing areas.
These measures will be implemented from 3:00 p.m. based on the flow of vehicles and people, and will be adapted at all times to the needs of the operation. The operation will primarily affect access to areas with the highest expected crowds, such as Santa Ponça, Costa de la Calma, El Toro, and Portals Vells.
The points where closures or restrictions will be established are:
- Cala Figuera road – roundabout 8 (Son Ferrer – El Toro direction).
- Plaça Jardí (intersection of Jaume I St., Santa Ponça Avenue, and Bartolomé Rosselló Planas St.).
- Costa de la Calma roundabout, at Bella Vista – Avenida de la Mar level.
- Cala Figuera road, access to Portals Vells.
- El Toro access roundabout, at Neptuno Avenue level.
- El Toro access roundabout, at Puig de sa Sirvi Avenue level.
- Jaime I Avenue, from Plaza Santa Ponça roundabout to Lisboa St., including access to and way out from the parking lot via Puig de Massanella St.
These measures are part of the special operation designed by Calvià Town Hall in coordination with the Directorate General of Emergencies and Interior of the Balearic Government and the various security and emergency services to guarantee the safety of residents and visitors during a day when a significant influx of people is expected in the municipality.
From the Town Hall it is recommended to plan journeys in advance, avoiding the use of private vehicles unless absolutely necessary, and following the instructions of the Local Police and the personnel involved in the operation at all times.
