Benidorm adjudica las obras de mejora de la movilidad y accesibilidad en el Salto del Agua

The project plans to create two new parking areas, bike lane and an extra 'exit' lane of the school complex. The performance is valued at around 300,000 and an improvement of 28.28%

Benidorm City Council has awarded works to improve mobility and accessibility in the school complex of Salto del Agua, which includes two public schools, four secondary schools (IES), the language school and the headquarters of the UNED and to which daily attend about 5,000 students. The project, drafted by the municipal technicians, includes the creation of two new parking areas and an extra 'exit' lane, the implementation of cycle lanes throughout the complex and the elimination of all architectural barriers. All these actions have a budget of 299,705 euros and are going to run coinciding with the Christmas school holidays so as not to interfere in the traffic. The councilor José Ramón González de Zárate explained that the company awards "an improvement of 28.28% , which will allow us to carry out more actions than we had originally planned ". De Zárate recalled that the works included in this project come to complete those made last year. Two parking spaces will be added now, one between Gabriel Miró School and IES L'Almadrava, and another between Pere Mª Orts i Bosch and Beatriu Fajardo de Mendoza institutes. It is estimated that with the asphalting of these two sections a hundred parking spaces are going to be get. It is also planned to extend the current bike lane to reach all high schools of the complex as claimed by students; While to avoid jams at the exit of the Salto del area will create an additional lane until the roundabout of Comunidad Europea Avenue. To create this lane, it will be eliminated the stretch of sidewalk that goes from where ends the EOI until the roundabout of the avenue, and that was not used when not having pedestrian exit.
