The Alto de la Casilla Urban Park is consolidating its position as a space designed for family leisure, reinforcing its character as a meeting point and a landmark for children within the municipality. From different points, and especially from the viewpoint, you can contemplate the Torrevieja salt lagoon, the La Mata salt lagoon and the Mediterranean Sea.

Ukraine reinforces its position as the leading foreign nationality, followed by Russia, Colombia, and the United Kingdom. More than 55% of Torrevieja's population is between 30 and 69 years old, with a balance maintained between men and women. The international population has increased in the last year, rising from 55,390 to 59,205 residents, representing a considerable growth of 3,815 people.

The Torrevieja City Council, through the Department of Equality and Women headed by Inmaculada Montesinos, joins the events of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, which is commemorated on November 25.

It has received an investment of 1,350,000 euros, in a collaboration between the Valencian Regional Government, the Torrevieja City Council and the ADIEM Foundation. The mayor has announced that in 2026, alongside these new facilities, construction will begin on a residence for people with extreme support needs.

The motion presented by the Popular Party has been supported by councilors from the PSOE, VOX, and Sueña Torrevieja.

The Red Cross and Civil Protection have informed CECOPAL that a total of 23 homeless people (16 men and 7 women) were transferred last night to the "Tavi and Carmona" Sports Pavilion, where they are currently staying and are being cared for at all times by volunteers from Alimentos Solidarios.

The choice of Torrevieja as the location for the release of these turtles responds to the principle of philopatry, by which adult females return decades later to the same area where they were born to lay their eggs.

The Mayor of Torrevieja, Eduardo Dolón, reports that the Torrevieja City Council, through the Department of NGOs and Volunteering, and once the bidding process has concluded, has provisionally awarded the contract to the company Francisco M. Juárez Pozuelo for the drafting of the basic and execution project, the health and safety plan and the waste management plan for the construction of the new Day Centre for people with Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases "Tomás Ballester Herrera".

The contracts correspond to the implementation of the low-emission zone, with a value of 1,775,210 euros, and the execution of the connection of bicycle lanes with the low-emission zone and safe school routes, which is put out to tender for 1,245,603 euros.

AGAMED has detected a downward trend in the last year in both the number of blockages and the amount of non-biodegradable waste collected in the sewage system.

The turtle carries a satellite transmitter that will allow its route to be known in real time and expand knowledge about the biology of the species.
