road congestion

Dr. Francisco Alonso, Director of INTRAS, has been interviewed on November 14, 2024 by Cadena Ser in its program “Hoy por hoy Valencia”, to address how the DANA has affected mobility in the city of Valencia and metropolitan area.

Dr. Alonso has talked about public transport, which he considers a priority in this situation, or the staggered entry to work to avoid these collapses.

Public transportation is fundamental for the metropolitan area but we do not have information on demand. Alonso believes that we should have public applications to provide more interactive information for users by public institutions.

As for the aggressive driving that is generally caused by the congestion produced, Francisco Alonso pointed out that, in these exceptional situations, the trend is towards greater understanding and solidarity.
