According to the Mayor of Almuñécar, the Plaza de La Indepencia in La Herradura will be ready and open to the public in mid May... just in time for the elections.

Mayor Juan José Ruiz Joya pointed out that the square has been adapted for access for people with mobility problems and that the problem of water leaking into the car park below the square had been solved.

First Councillor for La Herradura, Daniel Barbero, was also present for the photo op, naturally, who pointed out that the budget for the work amounted to 320,000 euros.

He said that the work on the square was very necessary as the design of the Plaza de La Independencia was outdated and needed an overhaul so that it would become the “nerve centre of the village’s social life,” as it would be the open-air venue for concerts and events
