He was accompanied by the Mayor of Ítrabo, Antonio Carrascosa, who is not averse to appearing in a photo, either.

Chairman Caballero announced, “Today we are here, having solved a long-term problem, where many locals in the village centre had to use an old and obsolete sewage system, which in some cases passed beneath their homes.”

He continued, “We have used an old irrigation channel to separate the sewage and irrigation water; thus solving a serious problem that farmers had to deal with as irrigation water used to be mixed with untreated sewage.”

This public work had a budget of nearly 200,000 euros to cover the separation of the Vega Baja irrigation channel from the sewer system and the elimination of mixed sewage water running into the Barranco of Ítrabo near the GR-5300.

A collection points now receives all the sewage water from the village and sends it to where the future sewage-treatment plant will be.
