SAN PEDRO DEL PINATAR is getting a €500,000 boost for road safety and other necessary upgrades on Doctor Artero Guirao Avenue. The project, which is part of the 2024-2025 Works and Services Plan, aims to make the area safer and more accessible for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers.
Improving road safety and accessibility on Doctor Artero Guirao Avenue
The upgrades will cover a stretch of the avenue between Calle Goya and Avenida del Puerto. The plan includes resurfacing the road, replacing old, worn-out paths with new, durable concrete pavers, and adding a bike lane to improve mobility. Tactile paving will also be installed at pedestrian crossings to help people with limited mobility.
Green initiatives: Enhancing the avenue with pine trees and plants
In addition to these practical changes, the project will also focus on making the area greener, with the planting of tall pine trees and other plants along the avenue to enhance its appearance.
Boosting infrastructure investment: San Pedro del Pinatar s €500,000 project
This investment is part of a wider €18 million budget to improve infrastructure in smaller towns, with San Pedro del Pinatar seeing a 41 per cent increase in funding compared to the previous plan. Local officials, including Regional Minister Marcos Ortuño and Mayor Pedro Javier Sánchez, stress that the collaboration between regional and local governments is key to meeting the community’s needs.
These improvements will make life easier and safer for residents while making the street more pleasant for everyone who uses it.
