Madrid has been suffering from traffic congestion and high pollution levels since decades, so a change in the circulation system through a bypass could benefit both pedestrians and drivers.
The capital is one of the most contaminated areas in Spain, that is the reason why current politicians are specially concerned about environmental problems. Building a new motorway around the city would set this problem away so as to reduce noteacibly pollutants as well as noise. Such changes will improve citizens’ health and raise Madrid to a higher stardards in terms of tourism. Nonetheless, initially roadworks will cause a potential damage to the nature surroundings around the city, since it will involve an intensive land use with this purpose.
Secondly, a bypass will result in less traffic jams leading to a more fluent circulation, specially in the city centre. As it was mentioned above, tourists will appreciate it, consequently such measures shall contribute to a better prospect in economical terms rather than a detriment in this sector. Madrid is an internationally reknowned city, thereby this project will not involve loss in tourism. The arquitecture, museums and historical places in the capital of Spain definitely constitute a major reason to stay here during holidays.
All in all, the advantages linked to this idea exceed by far drawbacks. In the long term, environment, citizens, tourism and ultimately the country will raise to another level.

environment.”
“What about loss of revenue when tourists
no longer visit sites of historical interest in
the town?”
Write an essay for your tutor discussing two of the benefits in your notes. You

isadvantages and provide reasons to support your opinion

Report about the bypass works around Madrid
Madrid has been suffering from traffic congestion and high pollution levels sincefor decades, so a change in the circulation system through a bypass could benefit both pedestrians and drivers.
The capital is one of the most contaminapolluted areas in Spain, that is the reason. This is why current politicians are especially concerned about environmental problems.
"the reason" makes sense but the sentence is more concise without it.
"polluted" usually is used more than "contaminated" when talking about a city.
Building a new motorway around the city would solvet this problem away so as to reduce noteacibly, significantly reducing pollutants as well as noise.
"Solve" is the most common verb used with "problem"
Such changes will improve citizens’ health and raise Madrid to a higher starndards in terms of tourism.
Nonetheless, initially roadworks will cause a potential damage to the nature surroundings around the city, since it will involve an intensive land use with this purpose.
"damage" is uncountable
Secondly, a bypass will result in less traffic jams leading to a more fluentand improve circulation, especially in the city centre.
"fluent" is usually only used in the context of a language
As it was mentioned above, tourists will appreciate it, consequently such measures shall contribute to a better prospect in economical terms rather than a detriment in this sectorwill help the economy rather than hurt it.
"Shall" is extremely formal and sounds pretty outdated nowadays, in my opinion.
The second part of the sentence is very wordy and seems a bit awkward, so I shortened it while still retaining your point.
Madrid is an internationally reknowned city, thereby this project will not involvecause a loss in tourism.
