All of these actions were approved on November 7 and financed by Hidraqua from the Investment Fund.

In this way, with the creation of the roundabout, public lighting has also been changed through the Renewal and Energy Efficiency Plan, renewing both the columns and the luminaires, and changing the existing ones for more energy-efficient LED lamps.
