Benidorm invests 3.2 million euros in works before the end of the year

20 September 2017
Benidorm invierte 3,2 millones de euros en obras antes de acabar el año

Benidorm City Hall will run before the end of the year works for an amount close to 3.2 million euros. The councilor of the area, José Ramón González de Zárate, has moved today the programming of all these works, mostly financed by the municipal budget.

The first work to begin will be the Accessibility Plan, valued at 320,000 euros, which starts next Monday and provides for a score of performances in different neighborhoods of the city, starting with Els Tolls. A week later will be the turn of the Plan of Maintenance of the Urban Scene, in which about 200,000 euros will be invested in repairing sidewalks and in which "the urgencies are going to be marked by the citizens", although part of the money is wants for arrangements in the coastal strip.

On Monday, October 2 the work will begin to complete the commercial improvement of Los Almendros Avenue, a work valued at 150,000 euros, subsidized with about 70,000 euros by the Ministry of Commerce that will remove architectural barriers, tree planting and installation of a wifi network.

By mid-October, three projects will begin. The first is the construction of the footbridge that will link the neighborhood of Els Tolls with the surroundings of the Palau d'Esports. This work is included in the Participatory Budget and represents an investment of 285,000 euros. In 330,000 euros is worth the remodeling and make Gerona street a pedestrian area in the stretch between Esperanto and Orts Llorca. To these two projects will be added the arrangement of sidewalks and rainstorms in Herrerías street, which is estimated at about 70,000 euros and will be funded by Consum company.

De Zárate has indicated that these last two actions are programmed in such a way that "the bulk of the work is finalized for the Patron Major Festiviies" so that the road can be in use and the work is resumed after the festivities.

It will also be after the festivities of November when Pérez Llorca Avenue will be turn into a half pedestrian street -430,000 euros; the construction of a skating rink in the surroundings of Palau d'Esports -285,000 euros-; and the second phase of Tomás Ortuño street, the project with more investment, 720,000 euros.

To all these actions are added those that will be carried out by different service companies, including those requested by Iberdrola to improve the electricity network.
