Tourdera Monitoring Committee in Fogars de la Selva
On January 14th, the annual monitoring and coordination meeting for the “Tordera Route and Arbúcies Stream” project took place in the municipality of Fogars de la Selva. As you know, these meetings take place periodically with the 18 municipalities participating in the project and serve to share all the actions carried out in recent months, as well as providing a space for debate for the various project participants.
New signage in some municipalities of La Tourdera
For some weeks now, some municipalities on the Tordera route, such as Fogars de la Selva, Massanes, Arbúcies, or Riells i Viabrea, have been carrying out signage improvements that will mean an improvement for the route, both in terms of monitoring and heritage interpretation.
The new Ramió footbridge is now a reality
During the summer, we informed you in an article that reconstruction works had begun on the Ramió footbridge, a historic bridge over the Tordera River where the Tourdera route passed before the Gloria storm, between the Les Llobateres wetland area and Hostalric. We have the good news to announce that this October the works have finished and the footbridge is now fully operational.
Start of reconstruction work on the Ramió footbridge
After a long time, we can finally announce that construction work has begun on the reconstruction of the Ramió footbridge, a historic footbridge over the Tordera River where the Tourdera passed before Storm Gloria, between the Llobateres wetland and Hostalric. This crossing, much used by the residents of Ramió, in the municipality of Fogars de la Selva, was seriously affected by the impact of Gloria, which forced a detour in the Tordera route to avoid this passage.
Signage detour from the main route between Hostalric and Fogars
As we have announced repeatedly, Storm Gloria caused significant damage to the Tourdera route, especially between the municipalities of Hostalric and Fogars de la Selva. Specifically, the route was cut off across the Tordera, and while the crossing remains unrepaired, this week signage has been installed for the route on the other side of the river.
Arrangements of the Tourdera in Fogars de la Selva
As we mentioned here last week, we have made the route map available to Tourdera users, showing all current incidents caused by Storm Gloria, which severely damaged infrastructure adjacent to the river. One of the most affected municipalities was Fogars de la Selva, and today we are informing you of the improvements that have already been carried out there. Little by little, we will notify you of the actions that have been taking place in other municipalities.
Massanes – Fogars de la Selva section
We continue to present the recently activated sections of the Tourdera, this time between the church of Sant Cebrià de Fogars (in Fogars de la Selva) and the village of Massanes. On this section, approximately halfway through, you will pass very close to the town of Hostalric, where you can take the opportunity to make a short stop by deviating slightly from the path.
Information on the section between Fogars de la Selva and Tordera is available.
