Madrid forecasts eight million less in traffic fines for 2027
Madrid's draft budget estimates more than 215 million euros in fines for 2027. Around 186 million would come from traffic fines, eight million less than this year's forecast, while the accounts continue their municipal approval process.
The forecast for traffic fines drops from 194.5 million euros in 2026 to around 186 million in 2027, a reduction of eight million. This calculation is part of a total exceeding 215 million euros in penalties.
Offences related to mobility account for 86% of the expected revenue. Tax or similar offences amount to just over 11 million euros, while urban planning offences stand at 665,000 euros.
The municipal project increases by 4.9% compared to the current year, reaching 323.3 million euros. Housing accounts for the largest planned investment, with 248 million euros and a 10% increase; details of this allocation can be found in the information on housing. The Junta de Gobierno has initially approved the accounts, and the text will go through a period of objections and amendments before being submitted to the Plenary in December. It is scheduled to come into effect on 1 January.
