Xàbia reinforces the pedestrianization of the First Montañar and prohibits parking on the first line of the beach

03 June 2020 - 10: 14

The Local Police recalls that as a result of the pedestrianization of one of the lanes of Avenida del Mediterráneo (first Montañar) it has been forbidden to park in the beachfront area.

It is a violation to exceed the continuous lane separation line, especially now when it is reinforced by separation elements.

However, the agents have been performing a pedagogical function during the first weeks of this change in the Montañar and even, in recent days, have placed a strip of cones on the shoulder of the beach and informative signs to make the prohibition completely clear. .

Now, with practically a month of filming since the pedestrianization of the lane that runs in the direction of Arenal-Puerto began, they consider that there has been enough time to internalize the change and will begin to sanction.

Collaboration and maximum respect for this pedestrian area is requested to give more space to people who walk or play sports, and thereby facilitate that they can maintain the recommended social distance to stop the spread of COVID-19.

    Walking doesn't kill anyone. You don't need to bring 10 chairs, 3 tables, 2 fridges, a plasma TV and a bottle of butane. Towel and go.

    Some should travel a bit and get to know other cities where the coastal strip is free of traffic. They only think about car, car, car and more car. They panic when it comes to pedestrianizing a street, as if they were not pedestrians rather than drivers. They do not like to walk, and they do not like that the majority want to do it without the danger of being run over or without being smelled by pollution. They are people who do not care about the environment or the landscape or natural beauty. They are selfish, because they think only of themselves and not of the common good.

    The future comes with cities for people and not for cars. The more quality of life, the more quality tourism and the more benefit for the community.

      Sorry, but I don't agree with you on some things. Indeed, it is not necessary to take all the junk that people now carry to the beach, Before we used to bring a towel, a bucket and a toy shovel for children to play and, if they were very young, an umbrella so they would not burn. with the sun. I have a car, but I like walking more than driving, so I only use it when necessary. But I am also many years old and I cannot walk from Arenal to Puerto because my back does not allow it, not for lack of desire. Selfish are those who think that we are all young. And, of course, I can assure you that I am a very environmentalist, but really, not those who claim to be and do nothing for the environment. Pedestrianizing everything is not a solution, at least for many people. Think of them too.

      • Xavi says:

        I have exaggerated things as a wake up call, it was not my intention to disturb anyone in particular. Sometimes you have to be forceful for the message to go further. This is a necessary debate, because growth cannot be unlimited, DANA told us in January and now the virus is telling us. And the forecast is pessimistic: more storms and more pandemics will come. Patching is not a solution for the future. The model must be changed. Regards.

    I would make a huge sidewalk from the port to the sandbank, where cars are now parked, leaving the coast for a walk, and cycling would be great, without parked cars you could enjoy the sea and not see that lot of cars in a privileged place.

  4. Gema Martinez sierra says:

    It was time, stroll and be able to see the sea, without cars that obstruct your view, it would be great. You can leave your car in Madrid and come by bus, so you would no longer have that problem.

    • Marco Ortiz says:

      Your comment seems an insult to me, it is totally sectarian, thanks to those from Madrid, Valencia, Bilbao and elsewhere Xabia / Jàvea is what it is, otherwise you and others will have to return to hard work in the fields with profits uncertain and modest ... Please have a broader view of reality.

      • Sergi says:

        Ie Marcos, if you don't like it, you can go anywhere. We live well without you and we will live even better. Do not forget that you are only clients. And customers are easily replaced. You don't need anyone.

        • Erika says:

          Sorry, but I do not think your way of responding to Marco is correct. Without tourism, Jávea will not live well, you just have to check it. Customers are not easily replaced, it takes a lot of time and effort to win them over.

  5. jaunfran says:

    to continue like this gentlemen, when there will be no more tourists in Xabia, we will have to start working the land as before ...

  6. Juanjo says:

    Measured burena, but first you have to solve the problem so that people can park and then you can already walk, not the other way around. On the other hand, as soon as the Covid leaves, the two vehicle lanes will have to be left as they were before, because if not, the rest of the streets will have more traffic, noise and pollution than Madrid. It is also very dangerous for bicycles to go along with cars like this. Via Augusta is going to look like Paseo de la Castellana, with its abuses and everything.

    On the other hand, I am concerned about this new dynamic based on over regulating, prohibiting, fining, imposing measures without making prior studies and without establishing a prior consensus, etc.

    • Erika says:

      Of course, as soon as the alarm is over, have them leave the two lanes again to circulate. And, yes, you can do the ecological path, not cement, please, where cars now park, also leaving some areas free to park. There are many people who cannot move easily.

  7. miguel angel says:

    I have been seeing this city for 8 years and I see, with sadness, its decline (streets full of garbage and dog shit, endless works, neglect to take care of the aesthetics of the city, little or no update in terms of infrastructure and common areas As an example, right now we have ... unfinished bridge, after a year, between the port and the sandy area, the entire Arenal area razed without moving a stone from the GLORIA storm and with tourism on top! different areas made a calamity and without starting to fix. This, friends, is a real shame !!!!! and us while… paying taxes !!!!!. And what does the city council do about it ??????? ????????? NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • RZC says:

      Totally agree . We are going to be much worse in the set of actions in Javea that seem more dedicated to making parking more difficult… .LIVING !!! Without so much screwing up the neighbors in addition to making it more expensive with SUPER-EXTRAORDINARY expenses for road separations, none aimed at facilitating PARKING in front of access to beaches and / or rocks in the Montañares

    • Erika says:

      Totally agree with you.

  8. Jose Luis says:

    Doing the first pedestrian mountain goes back a long way, even a fund of more than a billion pesetas was lost at the time of Moragues as mayor.
    It is a fantastic idea but before you have to make an important decision and it is where you can park your cars, both to go to businesses and cars that do not absorb private parking.
    Keep that in mind, otherwise business will be affected.

    • Cristina says:

      Well, they already explained to us where we are going to park to go to bathe, it was already difficult before… .. A real madness !!! Nor are we going to be able to enjoy some baths this year without having to do 3 km with the dishes at a cost?

      • Gema Martinez sierra says:

        You walk a little and you buy a cart for the junk, and fixed. And we can all have a wonderful view of the Javea sea without cars.

  9. Juan Ramón says:

    WITHOUT CARS…. BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO

    AT LAST

    • Gema Martinez sierra says:

      It was time to see the sea when you walk and not cars. It is embarrassing that people who have to walk a little from their car to the beach complain.

  10. MVJ says:

    Anyone with a little ecological sensitivity (it doesn't take much), realizes the Montañar's nonsense. I agree that there are more important things, but it is logical that they have taken advantage of Covid to probe solutions to a situation that at some point had to be modified. The change will probably hurt some (me among them), but it will benefit most. That's what it's about.

    • Rafa says:

      Well then if we go ecological we can expropriate the first line of constructions of the mountain as the coast law says and plant palm trees ... I do not understand that the measure is taken and it has not been foreseen before where the vehicles will be parked, it should have been foreseen with the realization of a parking lot if not I assure you that it will be a chaos but that if ... it will be precious when the traffic jams completely paralyze the circulation ... and as always first the rule with sanction and without solutions what lack of foresight !!

  11. Loqueloque says:

    “A month of filming since the pedestrianization of the lane began” But these people have found out that we have been confined?

  12. Pepe Llorente placeholder image says:

    Whoever buys an apartment for € 300.000 can't buy a parking lot? The one who brings two or three cars to spend the summer and does not move them can hardly park them on the Via Augusta? It will be a pleasure to walk in the mountains now. Entrepreneurs who make a lot of money with first-line restaurants, to rent parking spaces in the area. In addition, in a couple of years the business will be even better. And the beach visitors one day, to the Via Augusta to park. You have to do a good parking near the parador, yes. And for the port, you could move the sports area on Calle Genova next to Gorgos in a large parking lot. And do the sports area somewhere else (or use the sports center of the port that has everything). In short, pedestrianization is very good news for Jávea. At last the coast will be a monument in itself to enjoy, and not a large parking lot! Bravo. And I am completely politically opposed to Compromis, let me be clear. But if the Lord Mayor does something good for Javea, then take off his hat

    • Gema Martinez sierra says:

      Bravo, Bravo, Bravo, to be able to enjoy the sea of ​​Jávea, without having cars that obstruct seeing this marvel of the coast, it is worth walking a bit. And make the parking where it does not disturb and is not too far.

  13. Ivan says:

    1 They still do not understand that excessive pedestrianization will load the adjacent streets + Pollution since the cars will not stop turning until they find parking throughout the port and arenal

    2 I hope they enable a free or at least cheap public parking and not a private one at € 6 an hour for those cars

    3 those cars did not bother there

  14. Xavi says:

    It is time to recover the coast and the landscape. It has been years and years of stealing public space. Those who protest want to park in the water for not walking 5 minutes, lest they arrive exhausted.

    Very good for the measure, although it has taken too long to take it. The eyes bleed from seeing hundreds of cars stuck to the shore.

    • Alfred says:

      As soon as the holidaymakers start coming they will have to back down.
      Where are the hundreds of cars belonging to relatives and neighbors who have nowhere to park supposed to park? In the back streets there is no room for one more. Or do we tell them not to come? .. What will happen to the events organized by the Parador ?. There are times when it seems that politicians live in Gata and do not know what happens here. The rubble between the road and the sea embankment must be organized and cleaned once and for all. Battery parking next to the road. It is already known that there are many people here who live on income, but most have to work and if it were not for tourism… ..tururu.

      • Marc says:

        Open the umbrella because you are going to have a big downpour, but ... I SUBSCRIBE YOUR COMMENT 100%

        • Erika says:

          I also. And I am going to fall another downpour because what the City Council is doing lately, I have said on many occasions and I will continue to say it, they seem to me to be tremendous barbarities.

      • Juan Ramón says:

        We will have to make a Parking in Via Augusta ¡¡? '
        Anything but put the cars in the dunes and on the rock, no ??

      • Xavi says:

        His reasoning is the same as those that oppose the pedestrianization of cities. Read about SUSTAINABLE DECREASE, because it is what comes hopelessly. Collapsing tourist areas enriches a few, but sacrifices the future of the majority.

        I don't think there are many towns that allow parking so close to the water. The Costas delegation should have solved this nonsense, but Rajoy gave cement more than 75 years.

        Anyway, it is going to be the storms that are to come that put everyone in their place. Starting with the chieftains who have allowed the destruction of the coastal strip.

  15. manuel lopez says:

    Collapsing the cliffs of chalets seems good to them, and filling the coves with hundreds of boats too.
    and prohibit driving and parking on that important road? It's incredible… .and on top of that they charge.

    • Juan Ramón says:

      You also have to stop building on the cliffs ... You have to start somewhere

      • Cristina says:

        Of course, first a free parking and then it is already pedestrian. The distances are not short to go with older people or children

    • Erika says:

      Yes, but for the buildings on the cliffs they charge (some of them exceed the legal cubic size / m2, but it seems that does not matter either) and for prohibiting movement no. I think the issue is clear.

  16. Maria says:

    And from Arenal to the port how we got there… .. the idea of ​​not parking seems good to me. But please enable alternative routes, for example, finish Genova street, change directions and indicate things well.
    By the way, a surveillance poquet will not be bad, yesterday in an hour I saw 2 vans, a truck and two high-end cars passing by where I told you the prohibition sign, also annoying the pedestrians who were walking by their site.

  17. Jose Maria says:

    How beautiful the first mountain looks… without cars, we have to walk more and leave the car in another place.

    • Maria says:

      And residents of the first mountain that we do not have a garage, or close access to other streets with the possibility of parking, where are we going to leave our vehicles? Nor will we have the right to park near our home?

  18. Alice says:

    Well, I think that with all the population that is away and goes by car, it is going to be brown.
    It is essential to enable some area for public parking

  19. Alice says:

    Well, I think that with the number of people who come from akejada areas it is going to turn brown, a public parking should be enabled.

  20. JJ says:

    It is a great idea. How many have a garage and do not park for comfort in it? It is easier to leave the car in front. And if you want to go to the beach or to a restaurant, park on Via Augusta which is always empty! It is not a big problem to walk 100 meters and how beautiful it is a natural and beautiful bay that is not a parking lot

  21. Jose says:

    Another outrage in the desire for pedestrianization. The adjacent streets will be overwhelmed by the parking that will now be sought in Vía Augusta and others ... It is not a good solution if you have not previously provided space for the hundreds of cars that each come from the extensive end of Jávea.

    • Pablo says:

      No cars on the first mountain and more room for pedestrians is a good measure. Until now, pedestrians from the port to the sandbank and from the sandbank to the port had to walk along a narrow sidewalk. And the beach area was invaded by cars that had all the prominence instead of pedestrians, which did not have good access even by pedestrian crossings, with children, carts, umbrellas, etc.

      • Erika says:

        The sidewalk that currently exists can be called anything but narrow. It is wide enough for 3 or 4 people to walk without problem. And there is also a bike path that unfortunately many cyclists don't use. They are on the sidewalk or in the car lane and are a real danger.

    • Erika says:

      Completely agree with you. When they walk, it seems to me that they do not think at all about people who do not have easy mobility: older people, people with a physical problem that prevents them from moving easily, many other people without a car, but who work far from their homes and need to use the bus, etc. It is not only necessary to facilitate parking for those who do come by car, it is to limit and isolate a very important area of ​​Jávea.
      And I don't agree with JJ either. It can be seen that he is young and does not care much for the older ones, for which 100 m does represent a considerable distance. Because they are not 100 m, they are 200, round trip, at least, as long as you can park at 100 m. And have a car, of course. If you leave a pedestrian space, not cement, but ecological as there are in some areas of the coast, where cars are now parked and some parking areas are enabled, that would be fine. Of course, leaving both lanes back and forth for circulation. It is a project that has been forgotten for years and it seems that the City Council likes banning rather than thinking.

  22. Erika says:

    I insist on saying that it still seems outrageous to leave only the Puerto-Arenal lane. And I say again that they have left many users of the urban bus without the possibility of using it, since there is no stop from Arenal to the Port. It is bad that this "great" idea was had while the alarm of the Covid-19 lasts, because there are many people who cannot go on foot, by bike, or by car to the town, but who are thinking of the City Council in leaving it So forever it seems crazy to me. Last year the money was spent on works with excavators to smooth the edges of the lane going to the Port so that it could be parked on the entire side of the land. This year they spend it on painting new lines, which almost nobody respects, of course neither cyclists nor pedestrians, and on putting a few separating landmarks between the lanes there and back. Really, I think that this City Council is making everything worse, spending our money on absurd things, instead of worrying about the real problems that Jávea has: cleaning, ease of bus transfers, excess buildings, etc., etc. IMHO a disaster.
