Salobreña Town Hall is going on a tarmacking blitz this week, including the entrance to Urbanización Monte de los Almendros.
All told, twelve streets will get a lick of asphalt within town, as well as sorting out parts of the Polígono La Gasolinera (trading estate) and a street in Lobres.
Calle Fragata (in the beach area) and Calle Marianao, (in the north of town) have already been sorted out, as can be seen in the accompaning photo.
Calle Aben Humeya, Calle Nicaragua, Calle Peronne and Calle Federico Mayor Zaragoza are next in line with work actually beginning yesterday and concluding today – Calle Federico Mayor Zaragoza runs below one of the schools, which is why it is getting sorted out before the kids go back to school after their summer holidays.
Once these street within town have be retarmacked, the machinery and workers will move onto the trading estate and lobres.
As for Monte de los Almendros, work began at the beginning of the week with workers trimming back trees along the access road up to the roundabout where the urbanización actually begins. Besides tarmacking the road surface (which has long looked like the Somme battlefield), the section of road will also have its street lighting renewed.
Editorial comment: one of the questions that the Gazette posed to the Mayor in an interview last year concerned this access road to Montes de Los Almendros, which received an evasive response.

Have they forgotten about the state of the Cota Doscientos, it’s a disgrace, and dangerous. There are holes in the road that if you don’t negotiate carefully you could rip your exhaust system off. It’s been like this for years.
