Avenida Almería in Carboneras faces resurfacing and signage

The works on Avenida Almería in Carboneras are entering their final stretch. The surface paving is already being laid and the new public lighting network has been installed. Next will come the asphalting and signage. At the same time, work on Avenida de Garrucha is progressing with the replacement of the underground water supply and sanitation networks. Both actions are part of the modernisation of two of the municipality's main road axes, with a total investment of 1.5 million euros co-financed through the Provincial Plans of the Diputación Provincial de Almería.

On Avenida Almería, the renovation of the water supply pipes and the sanitation network has been fully completed, as well as the telephone conduits and the new lighting. Urbanisation work is now being carried out: laying hexagonal slab paving, lowering kerbs to remove architectural barriers and preparing flowerbeds and landscaping elements. On the section of Avenida de Garrucha that is under construction, work is being done underground, with the comprehensive renovation of the drinking water and sanitation networks, before resurfacing the surface. Work resumed in mid-September. The mayor of Carboneras, Salvador Hernández, has held a coordination meeting with representatives of the Diputación Provincial, the works management, the construction company Nila, the municipal technical services and the Policía Local. They then went to both avenues to check the progress on the ground. Hernández has thanked residents and shopkeepers for their understanding of the inconvenience caused by the project and has highlighted «the good pace of works with which, sooner rather than later, both avenues will be modernised, also improving the quality of life of the people of Carboneras, and the experience of those who visit us», as indicated by the Ayuntamiento.
