The critical state of a drainage grate on Avenida del Ferrocarril becomes a latent risk for drivers, generating accidents and injuries to motorcyclists.
This busy avenue, at the height of the commercial passage of the Cañaveral condominium, has become the scene of multiple traffic accidents due to the worrying collapse of a drainage grate. This deterioration has left several motorcyclists injured and vehicles trapped, generating growing concern among drivers.
The obvious collapse of the grille has not only caused material damage, but has also led to more serious consequences, such as injuries to motorcyclists and dangerous situations for drivers. The situation worsens during the rains, when the drainage system fails, causing stagnation in the area and turning the area into a death trap, as it is difficult for drivers to see.

The situation becomes increasingly critical, since the community, seeing no concrete responses from the authorities, is forced to look for temporary solutions to protect the safety of drivers and pedestrians.
