Living in the town of Sant Julià, gateway to Naturlandia
Sant Julià de Lòria is the first town in the Principality of Andorra through the southern Spanish-Andorran border. It is a relatively large town in Andorra, with an estimated population of 7,858 inhabitants in 2016 according to the national pace of life in Sant Julià de Lòria is active and social. Its southern location gives it a more temperate climate than other higher-altitude locations, and it is the home to the University of Andorra, which fills it with energy and youth, giving the city a special dynamism.
The southern access to the town through the CG-1 leads to the roundabout entrance to Sant Julià. There, the traffic is divided into two. One that continues along the CG-1, peripheral to the city, and another that enters the old town of Sant Julià; this limits the traffic and favours a more social and commercial lifestyle. Is in this inner zone where most services are found: schools, the University of Andorra, the sports centre, the cultural and congress centre, and a wide variety of commercial businesses and terraces in large sunny squares.
Halfway, if we continue along the CG-1, there is a second roundabout, which is in the centre of Sant Julià. At the end of 2012 the last major road transformation of this town took place: this roundabout, the Aixovall roundabout and the Túnel de la Tàpia were constructed, which connects them diverting traffic to other locations outside the residential area .
These works were a great improvement for the entry of vehicles into the country and for the traffic inside Sant Julià de Lòria.
