Yes, under Article 36.1. This is an exception to using the right-hand shoulder when usable and sufficient and no part of the road is specifically provided for them. It does not permit freely entering the oncoming side. The descent exception does not apply on autovías: cyclists permitted to use them must remain on the shoulder. Adapt speed and course to conditions and observe other applicable rules.
