Work on the Paseo Andrés Segovia has just finished in time for the start of the international classical guitar competition, which is being held in the Civic Centre.

First Councillor for La Herradura, Ruiz Joya, explained that the work consisted of widening of the foot path, improvement to street lighting in the form of double-lamp fittings, and the restoring of a disused public spring-water tap on the Plaza las Palmeras.

Furthermore, public benches that had been in the gardens of the Castillo were re-situated on the paseo, as the councillor considered that there had been too many there. And to the delight of many, orange-tree samplings from the municipal plant nursery were planted.

As a finishing touch a marble plaque was fitted in honour of Andrés Segovia.

Locals will also notice that access has been improved with the modification of the kerbs, and that a flower bed that hampered access to Acera del Pilar from the beach for lorries and buses has been eliminated.
