DESCRIPTION This project aims to improve the C-14 road on the Organyà-Montant de Tost section by widening the existing road and constructing a new tunnel through the Tres Ponts gorge, from its entrance at the Grado de Escalas to near the river Lavansa and linking up with the existing Montán de Tost tunnel, which is set to be widened too. With this new infrastructure, crossing the entire gorge with speed and safety will be possible in a matter of minutes by avoiding passing through a particularly winding route. Furthermore, it represents a new milestone in the history of communications between the villages in the area.
