Asphalting worth 394,460 euros in La Laguna and la Paz

The streets of La Laguna, the area around Avenida de la Sanidad Pública and part of the barriada de la Paz will get extraordinary resurfacing. The project was announced by the mayor, Bruno García, after its approval at the Local Government Board meeting this Friday, November 13. The work will be done on calle Doctor Gómez Plana, between calle Pueblo Gitano (formerly Marqués de la Ensenada) and Avenida de Andalucía; on calle Goya, on the stretch between Avenida de la Sanidad Pública and calle Pintor Zuloaga; on calle Murillo, between Goya and Santa Teresa de Jesús; on calle Adelfas, between Florestán Aguilar and Rodríguez and the start of the curved stretch; on calle Juan de la Cosa, between Infante Orleans and Ronda de Vigilancia; and on the inner edge of Avenida de la Bahía, between Guadalete and Avenida de la Ilustración. The budget is 394,460 euros and the execution period is three months. Funding comes from the Diputación Provincial de Cádiz.

This resurfacing is in addition to the three plans launched in this term under the Diputación Cádiz Marcha plan. The first two have already been executed and the third is out to tender; together the three total 2.1 million euros. At the same Government Board meeting, the Health and Safety Plan for the city's horizontal signage plan was approved, with a budget of 352,884.76 euros. In addition, the Technical Urban Planning Office is drafting the road surface project.

The plots for two actions in Puntales have been included in the municipal asset inventory, a prior step to their free transfer to Procasa. 70 subsidised homes will be built there, 35 on each plot: one with 6.12 million euros of municipal investment and the other with 5.25 million from Fondos Edil and 790,000 euros municipal. With the 25 planned at the former Club Alcázar, Puntales will total 95 homes. The conservation project for the north façade and interiors of vault number 1 of the Baluarte de San Roque, where falling debris has occurred, has also been approved. It has 190,747.18 euros and a six-month deadline. It is the third action charged to the Puertas de Tierra credit, after the rehabilitation of the intrados (about 50,000 euros) and the digital study by the Universidad de Cádiz. The City Council has also started the procedure to transfer the Casa de Barcelona to the Junta de Andalucía, a property it owns at calle Cerdeña 277 in Barcelona, divided into three parts and unused for years. The transfer will be formalised through an agreement; the Junta will bring it into operation and maintain it, and the City Council will be able to use a space for exhibitions or cultural activities.
