The City Council awards the works that will allow dozens of Almendricos families to have regular electricity supply after spending several years with light work (15/02/2019)

The residents of the district will also benefit from the next award of the works of integral improvement that the Regional Ministry of Development of the Autonomous Community will execute on the road that connects Almendricos with Puerto Lumbreras.

The Councilor for Development in the City of Lorca, Angel Mecca, reported that the Municipal Council has approved at the meeting held this morning of the Local Government Board the award of the contract relating to repair and expansion of power lines in the La Fábrica, Casanova, Trasvase and Nueva streets, all of them located in the Almendricos deputation.

Ángel Meca explained that this is a municipal investment that is possible thanks to the financing of the Regional Government under the Plan for Districts and Districts.

It will benefit tens of families who after many years will be able to count on the final supply of electricity, after having to be for years with light work.

The performance of the Consistory, which has been awarded definitively for an amount of 83,000 euros, includes the implementation of a new electrical transformer to provide these homes with low voltage line.

We are talking about the execution of underground pipelines for electricity distribution networks in this area of ​​Almendricos expansion, classified as Unconsolidated Urban Land, which are currently fed from the existing air networks in the area provisionally with temporary supply working.

The councilor for Development has said that this project will allow affected families to proceed with the contracting of the definitive light supply and abandon the provisional contract they had been maintaining for this supply, and over which they had received successive court threats.

In this way, the commitment expressed by the Mayor, Fulgencio Gil, with the neighbors themselves in the regular work meetings that has been maintained with the broad associative fabric of our municipal district will be fulfilled.

Ángel Meca explained that the residents of Almendricos will benefit, in addition, from the works to improve the road that connects this hamlet with Puerto Lumbreras, and whose contracting process is nearing completion, having gone out to tender for a total amount of 6 million euros financed entirely by the Ministry of Development of the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia.

We must remember that this action will increase the road safety conditions with the elimination of two segments of accident concentration and small radius curves.

We are talking about a very necessary project to improve internal communication within our municipality.

On this road there is an average of more than 600,000 vehicle trips per year.

The works will benefit a stretch of 6.2 kilometers of the road and consist mainly of repairing the cracks and fissures in the road, produced by earthquakes.

The platform will be upgraded and extended so that it has two 3.5-meter lanes, with paved one-meter shoulders and berms of 0.50 meters along its entire length, in order to provide the road with greater safety.

At the same time, colored concrete sidewalks two meters wide on the right margin and 1.5 meters on the left side from the beginning of the crossing of Almendricos to the lower pass under the railway line Murcia-Lorca-Águilas will be executed .

Accesses to the facilities and agricultural areas will also be adapted through the construction of waiting lanes and a roundabout, elements that are used for the elimination of sections of concentration of accidents.

The roundabout split, with an outside diameter of 40 meters, will serve to order the high traffic that is recorded at the intersection located at kilometer 2 and that gives access to several urbanizable areas.

Likewise, three intersections will be enabled, two of them type T, to improve access to an aggregates quarry and two bituminous mixtures manufacturing plants.

The works also include the renovation of the drainage infrastructure, signaling, beaconing and existing services.

This action is in addition to the completion of the Vía Verde, a project of particular importance for the district, which has a route of 6.6 kilometers in its stretch of Lorca and takes advantage of the old railway line linking Lorca with Baza, and presents a total length of 19 kilometers to the Almerian town of Huércal-Overa.

The Councilor for Development has indicated that also to contribute to the development of Almendricos we are processing before the Government of Spain the cession of disused real estate that were part of the railway station of this hamlet, and that have been in disuse for a long time.

We want them to undertake a recovery initiative, so that they are really useful for the neighbors and constitute a positive impulse.

The commitment of this City Council is that, at the same moment that we obtain its assignment, we agree with them what type of service the neighbors consider that it may have more utility for the parish, and we will do so.
