The councilor secretary of the Local Government Board (JGL) of the Torrevieja City Council, Federico Alarcón, has reported that the Government Meeting held this morning has approved the contract file for the maintenance, conservation and repair of public roads of the Torrevieja municipal area, especially those that are part of the traffic road and sidewalks, and also including pedestrian paths and, in general, elements of public domain and use that the PGOU qualifies as such, whether they are urbanized or not, excluding the areas green that in the same way the PGOU qualifies as such, except for those services that are already included in some other maintenance contract (public lighting, traffic lights, road signs etc ...).
The Councilor for Quality of Urban Services, Sandra Sánchez, explained that Torrevieja is a city whose urban development has been basically horizontal. This implies the appearance of a multitude of new streets, living areas, pedestrian areas and promenades.
Until a few years ago the repairs and improvements of these elements were carried out by the City Council itself, although the great increase in streets, the appearance of new sidewalks and driveways have made the maintenance of all these infrastructures directly unsustainable.
Therefore, Sandra Sánchez added, it is necessary to outsource the infrastructure of public roads so that they are adequate from the point of view of the security and accessibility that is required of them.
The contract, which will be valid for four years (2 + 2), amounts to a total of 4,000,000 euros, which represents an investment of 1,000,000 euros per year.
To optimize resources and improve the quality of the work to be carried out, the municipality will be divided into 11 work zones:
· Zone 1. Torrevieja Oeste . Los Balcones, Los Altos.
· Zone 2. Torrevieja Sur . Rocío del Mar, Punta Prima, Mar Azul, La Veleta.

· Zone 6. Urbanizations downtown . From the Avda. París - Zorrilla - Ronda José Samper axis to the Avda. Cortes Valencianas, and from the Ronda José Samper to the Avda. París - Calera - Pascual Flores axis.
· Zone 7. Sector 25 . From Avda. Cortes Valencianas to the N-332 highway, and from the junction with the highway to Ronda Ricardo Lafuente.
