Works awarded for the new asphalting plan that will affect almost fifty streets in the city center and the outskirts of town
Work to improve the road surface will begin after the Christmas period. The City Council is already working on another plan that will cover new areas of the municipality from September next year.
The Estepona City Council has awarded and signed the contract for the actions contemplated in the new Municipal Asphalt Plan, which will improve nearly fifty streets in the town and the suburbs. This is the sixth action program that the Consistory activates in this area, thus giving continuity to the conditioning that has been carried out in recent years in other main and secondary streets of the city.
A total of 43 roads will be intervened on, which have been selected on the basis of the deterioration of the road surface they present, although this number could be increased as the works progress in case of the needs of the project. The works are scheduled to start once the Christmas holidays are over.
Specifically, in the downtown area, work will be carried out on Avenida del Carmen, Avenida de los Frutales, Calle del Peral, Calle del Naranjo, Calle José Luis Díez, Calle Matías Prats, Luis Buñuel, Alcalá Galiano, Lazaga, Avenida Andalucía, Gabriela Mistral street, Unamuno, Juan Guerrero Díaz, De la Matilla street, Ronda street, Jacinto Benavente, Dos de Mayo, Libertad avenue, Terral street, José Santacana, Arrabal Industrial, Alonso Cano, Gutenberg and Newton.
In the suburbs, the work areas are as follows: streets Del Molino, Del Reposo, Caddie, Valderrama Golf, Del Aire, De la Estrella, Irene Villa, Del Salmón, Isla Verde, Del Dragma, Avenida Costa Galera, Avenida Mexico, access to the beach Costa Natura, access and parking Los Granados, Avenida Hacienda del Sol, Avenida Del Norte, Avenida De los Andaluces, Calle Somontano, and Calle Del Priorato.
The asphalting plan has been awarded to the company Elsamex Gestión de Infraestructuras, which submitted the best economic offer, for 1,751,639 million euros, which represents a significant reduction compared to the base bid price which was set at 2.2 million euros.
The deputy mayor of the area of Development, Infrastructure and Tourism (FIT), Ana Velasco, has announced that work is underway on a new asphalting plan that will cover another significant number of streets in the municipality and will begin to be executed from September next year 2025.
This new plan that will begin in January is in addition to the five previous ones that have been undertaken in the city and have involved the improvement of more than 200 streets and actions in about 300,000 square meters of surface both in the town center and in areas of the suburbs.
