Thus, the Ministry has initiated the process of hiring the refurbishment of the path of this road, the D-4, and improving road safety itself.
The draft of the highway, regional ownership, affects a stretch of six miles, between mile markers 3 and 9.
The D-4 joins the MU-603, Mazarrón round, with the D-8, from which you access the town of Lorca.
