La Plaza Alta begins setting up Christmas and will cut off pedestrian access

The installation of the special Christmas and Three Kings lighting starts tonight in the Plaza Alta. The vehicles of the company Iluminaciones Ximenez, which provides the service, will begin unloading the material at around half past ten at night, according to the Algeciras City Council. From this Tuesday, the company's staff will work in morning and afternoon shifts to put up the structures that will be on display this year in this space in the city centre. The council's intention is that, if no problems arise that delay the process, the switch-on will take place on Friday, November 27.

To preserve the safety of the workers and of those who pass through the area daily, part of the Plaza Alta will be closed to pedestrians. The areas where the work is carried out will be cordoned off to delimit the works zone. The mayor, Jacinto Muñoz Madrid, has reported that the planned schedule keeps the switch-on for Friday, November 27, provided the installation progresses without setbacks. The City Council installs this special lighting every year in different areas of the city on the occasion of the Christmas and Three Kings holidays.
