Temporary Closure for Subsidence Repairs
The side lane of Avinguda del Maresme between Carrer de la Confraria de Sant Elm and Carrer de Jordi Joan will be closed to traffic from Tuesday 6 October to Thursday 8 October 2026. The closure is necessary to carry out urgent works to address a roadway subsidence, according to the Mataró City Council. The affected stretch will be shut each day during this period as crews locate and resolve the cause of the ground collapse. Motorists are advised to seek alternative routes or allow extra travel time.
Local Impact and Traffic Advice
The closure affects the service lane on one side of the avenue and is expected to impact local access for drivers, particularly those making deliveries or turning into side streets. While full vehicle circulation in both directions along the main carriageway remains unaffected, the city council urges caution in the area. Residents and commuters should plan accordingly, especially on 6 October, when multiple traffic disruptions are scheduled across central Mataró, including works on Carrer d’Argentona, Carrer de Sant Benet, and the lower section of Via d’Europa.
Disculpeu les molèsties.
The works form part of ongoing infrastructure maintenance on the Avinguda del Maresme, which has seen repeated interventions in recent years due to utility upgrades and urban redevelopment projects such as the TubVerd district heating network expansion.
