The City Council advances in the works of the coastal corridor section that will build a bridge over the Dos Hermanas Creek

The works, which have an investment of 344,511 euros (VAT included), will be completed during the next month of February

The Estepona City Council reports that the works of the coastal corridor section, which will run from Benamara to Playa de Baños, are progressing at a good pace.

The deputy mayor of the area of Development, Infrastructure and Tourism (FIT), Ana Velasco, explained that the works, which have an investment of 344,511 euros (VAT included), will be completed during the month of February.

This path, which is being executed by Urinci S.L., includes a 22.6 meter long wooden bridge over the Dos Hermanas stream. This infrastructure is expected to be installed by the end of January.

These works, which are financed through the Tourism Sustainability Plan in Destination-Next Generation Funds, also include the construction of a 220-meter-long, 4-meter-wide, cobblestone-type printed concrete pedestrian walkway, which will begin at the access to the beach via Calle Dorada.

With this new section, the coastal corridor project continues to advance after the recent completion of another path on the beach of El Cristo. This last one allows to cross, of uninterrupted form, the more than 17 kilometers that distance from Costa Natura to El Saladillo.

The Estepona coastal path is more than 90% completed, which means that there are more than 20 kilometers of coastline connected by these pedestrian sections. This initiative of sustainable urban development that connects the coastline is of great value because it has meant preserving this space and has enabled a new attraction for the municipality.

It should also be remembered that in the last two years five new stretches have been built: the one in the Arroyo Vaquero area; the one connecting the Laguna Village shopping center with Dominion Beach (with a length of 870 meters); a third stretch of 145 meters located in Riviera Andaluza; another one in front of the IKOS Andalucía hotel and the fifth one connecting this hotel facility with the Park Beach urbanization, which has a bridge of more than 60 meters over the Guadalmansa River.
