The new company that is running the Blue Zones in Almuñécar and La Herradura has been busily painting alternating blue & yellow lines.

The Iberpark spokesman, Federico González, explained, “we are painting the seafront paseos blue and orange but the comercial areas in the town centre will remain painted only blue,” adding, “we have been setting up the new parking meters along the seafront paseos now that we have finished doing this in the comercial areas.”

From the 1st of July until the 31st of August Blue Zones will be activated along the seafront paseos.

The main reason for using a double colour on seafront paseos is so that drivers can distinguish between the two systems; when in the year they are active and during which times of the day.

The company, whose offices can be found at Avenida de Europa Nº26, controls 600 parking places in the town centre and almost 1,500 along the seafront paseos in Almuñécar and La Herradura.
