Overview
- Audiencia Provincial de A Coruña ruled that Audasa must return 50% of tolls to plaintiffs for days when AP‑9 works from 2015 to 2018 severely disrupted traffic.
- The refund applies only to dates the DGT classified as black, red or yellow, reflecting degraded service rather than the mere presence of construction.
- Judges cited a breach of contractual balance, noting users paid full price despite deficient or chaotic service and a lack of adequate warnings about delays or alternatives.
- A DGT report documented 81 affected time slots during the works, evidence the court used to support partial reimbursement.
- The decision is not final and may be appealed to the Supreme Court, while DGT-documented jams on the AP‑66 have been brought to court to seek similar remedies against Aucalsa.
