Originally, the NII, the road connecting Madrid and Barcelona, passed through Guadalajara's urban area. As the population increased, the daily and continued use of this road began to cause serious trouble, forcing to build a bypass road in the year 1959. Over time, the road became a dual carriageway, establishing the limit of the urban development for over thirty years. At present, this border has been exceeded again by new tertiary and commercial developments that, after jumping over this main interurban road, have started to conquer the outer edge of the dual carriageway along the southeast perimeter.
