Puerto del Carmen on way system

Puerto del Carmen, in a very controversial move, made the main road that runs to entire length of the town into a one way road. Many locals and tourists were up in arms over this as access was made very difficult. To get to a given shop, restaurant of apartment that was the wrong way along the one system would entail a massive detour along congested back roads. At a time when local businesses needed all the help they could get to entice more customers through their doors this happened.
After a lot of local pressure a decision has been made to return things to how they were. Starting soon the old and troublesome one way system will go back to the two system. Parking will still be tricky in many sections of this road, locally known as 'the strip'. At least access will return to a good level.
