Roads Ahoy!

Roadworks on the A-387
Is anyone else out there completely frustrated by the amount of roadwork happening all over the province of Málaga. Living in Alhaurin el Grande is turning into out to be somewhat of a challenge (as I imagine are most towns); for at every junction you come to man and machine are busy toiling away. Digging, tarmacing, spraying, laying and generally causing mass chaos. During 2009 the central government spent more than 20 million euros on repairing and building roads in this province alone and according to the Euro Weekly News last week another 30 million is winging its way down to us this year. That means for the foreseeable future getting from A to B will stay a logistical nightmare.
Over the weekend I picked up the Sur in Spanish to read that two access roads into Alhaurín el Grande will be closed over the next couple of weeks. The stretch of road from Venta Los Chavos to Venta Pedro Lucena (A-404) will close tomorrow, the 2nd of Feb until the 18th. The other road closing is the A-387 which runs from the BP station by Alhaurin Golf to the crossroads at the entrance to Alhaurin el Grande (Ermita del Cristo de las Agonías). This will close on the 8th of February. This leaves us pretty much stranded for the moment, however the future looks bright for us, because in a couple of years I imagine we will be one of the best connected provinces in the whole of Andalusia.
