The access to the Cudillero tunnel has been inoperative for almost three years due to an "ordinary landslide in the rock," explains the Pixueto councilor, Carlos Valle. “We have cleaned and conditioned the entrance to the tunnel and the river course. We have also improved the internal electrical installation to make it more luminous and thus guarantee safety ”, he underlines about this infrastructure that connects the Port with the upper part of the town.
Although they have already carried out small actions to ensure that there are no new landslides, they will order a second report, especially for the entrance, "where there may be more conflict." From the Consistory they have contacted the Coast Demarcation to find out if there is any project planned in their department. "We do not have a large game assigned, it was a question of political will and we have been doing it in an ordinary way."
The idea that the municipal government team manages is that it can be in operation at the beginning of summer, since it is an "important tourist resource that has always been exploited and widely used in the daily lives of the neighbors," says Valle.
In addition, it had once been a transit point for fishermen and communicates with the laundry, a space that "we have rehabilitated to enhance its appeal."
