Arbúcies town council has raised with the Mossos d'Esquadra the problem of heavy vehicle traffic on the GI-550 road, at kilometre 3, at the entrance to the Ca n'Aulet industrial estate, where the company ACIN Recycling Metals has its site.

According to the council, the request is mainly due to lorries stopping and waiting on the hard shoulder to get into the company's site, a situation that makes driving difficult and calls for stronger traffic control on this stretch.
Arbúcies Local Police has drawn up several reports and carried out police services related to the problem. The issue was discussed at a meeting between the head of the Mossos d'Esquadra in Santa Coloma de Farners, the head of the Local Police, the councillor for Governance, Antoni Ronda, and the mayor, Pere Garriga.
The Mossos, through their Traffic area, have already been informed of the situation and have said they will carry out checks in the area to monitor heavy vehicle traffic, in coordination with the Local Police.

"It is the most conflictive point on the road between Arbúcies and Sant Hilari and it is better to find a solution as soon as possible"

Antoni Ronda · Councillor for Governance, Arbúcies town council
Traffic on the GI-550 falls under the responsibility of the Mossos d'Esquadra, as the road belongs to the Generalitat. That is why, the council explains, it has taken the matter to the force so that they can work together and ensure road safety at this point.
