The town hall argues that the Mobility and Universal Accessibility Office requires additional time to conduct a detailed analysis of the infrastructure. The office states that urgent implementation of changes could endanger road user safety.
This means drivers in Santa Cruz de Tenerife may not see immediate changes in traffic signals. The town hall is seeking time to safely adapt existing solutions to the new regulations.
