Overview
- The Diputación de Pontevedra sent a bilateral convenio on June 1 offering €1.7 million to cover 70% of the €2.4 million humanization of Rosalía de Castro.
- The plan targets a 110‑metre stretch and would create a shared platform with one lane per direction, replace asphalt with brushed concrete, and convert 69% of the street into pedestrian and green space.
- Vigo’s city government and the BNG rejected the text on June 2, saying it changed agreed terms and appeared to condition the grant on a public signing that they call unacceptable.
- The provincial government says the sent convenio matches the one approved by Pontevedra, will incorporate technical observations and publicity clauses, and expects formal provincial approval soon as part of a €5 million bilateral programme.
- The dispute has put the work on hold and could delay the projected local benefits of reduced traffic speed, lower noise and more shade for residents until the two administrations agree on a revised text or formal sign‑off.
