The Local Government Board approves the award of the drafting of the project of the works for the completion of the Poniente Dam

The Poniente Dam constitutes an element of high urban interest, since on the one hand it expands public space for citizens and, on the other, it is a top-level tourist resource just like the Levante Dam. Likewise, its connection with Avenida Desiderio Rodríguez and Avenida de Pinoso represents an essential junction for the circulation of the city.

After several work meetings between the mayor of Torrevieja and those responsible for the public company ACUAMED, SA, it was agreed by both parties that, in view of the fact that the procedures to carry out these projects were not being streamlined and were taking forever, and Due to the concern expressed by citizens due to so much delay, it would be the Torrevieja City Council itself that would take on the drafting of the project to complete the Poniente Dike promenade. For all these reasons, once the project is drawn up by the winning company, it will be delivered to ACUAMED so that they can carry out the completion works.
