Tortosa and Roquetes receive €250,000 to repave the Sant Francesc road
Tortosa and Roquetes face urgent improvement. The resurfacing of the Sant Francesc road is about to begin thanks to a financial injection that no one expected so quickly.
The plenary session of the Tarragona Provincial Council has approved a nominative grant of 250,000 euros destined for the Tortosa-Roquetes Commonwealth to renovate this road shared between both towns.

Importance of the road for local mobility
The Sant Francesc road is a key axis that connects Tortosa and Roquetes, used daily by residents, farmers, and local services. Its current condition was deteriorated, complicating traffic and putting safety at risk.
The Commonwealth as manager of the improvement
The Tortosa-Roquetes Commonwealth is the entity responsible for managing the resurfacing project. With this aid, it will be able to carry out the necessary works to ensure safer and more comfortable access for all users.
