Benidorm updates the sewers of Rosario and Alcalde Jaume Ferrer streets to avoid traffic jams and bad smells

Benidorm City Council, through the company in charge of the integral water cycle –Hidraqua-, has started updating the sewerage network "of two streets of the Old Town: Rosario and Mayor Jaume Ferrer", as reported today by the Councilor for the department, José Ramón González de Zárate.

The councillor explained that "the objective of this work is to avoid traffic jams in the network and bad smells", and stressed that it will be carried out "practically without affection or inconvenience to the neighborhood of both streets, as it is not necessary to opening of large trenches ”. In fact, "the only work, if necessary, will be carried out in those points of the network where elbows or sewer traps are located".

In the rest, he has clarified that "a continuous pipe sleeve will be infiltrated into the sewer, which allows it to be repaired without the need to open trenches."

De Zárate has assured that "it is a very important work for the Old Town and more specifically for the sewerage of this point", which "is very deteriorated" and in which "traffic jams occur with some frequency, and with them odor problems ”. To date, these eventualities required that "we bring vats to be able to unblock the pipes, something that will no longer be necessary as soon as the extension piece of the pipe is installed."

The mayor has stressed that "with this action we advance in the renovation of the city's drinking water and sewerage network, in this case in an emblematic point such as our Old Town."

This action will be completed in a period of approximately one month.
