Description
Summary:This bridge over the Ebro, at Castejón, will provide an important north-south link between Pamplona and central Spain, with a possible connection towards France. It is designed to carry two traffic lanes only, with a total width of 10.50 ms. But it is planned to double it later, so that its width will be 20.50 and double panes of traffic in each direction will be provided. Currently, anticipating future needs, the township of Castejón has constructed this bridge through its own financial provisions, and will collect a toll charge to recuperate its outlay. El puente de Castejón sobre el rio Ebro servirá a una comunicación norte-sur de gran importancia desde la ciudad de Pamplona al centro de España, con posible prolongación hacia Francia. Se ha construido para dos vías de comunicación únicamente, con una latitud total de 10,50, pero en su día será duplicado, es decir, pasará a doble carril en cada una de las direcciones con separación intermedia y andenes laterales y latitud total de 20,50. En la actualidad el pueblo de Castejón, adelantándose a este porvenir próximo ha construido por su cuenta esta importante obra, obteniendo una concesión de peaje para sufragar los gastos.
