Yaiza Ayuntamiento has reopened Avenida de Femés in Playa Blanca following a €1.3 million upgrade aimed at improving road safety and access to the resort.
The road reopened in both directions on Wednesday afternoon.
The works included reinforcing the roadbed, widening the roadway, resurfacing, and constructing a central median and cycle lane. The project was funded from the Yaiza municipal budget.
The mayor said the contractor must now move immediately to the second phase of the project.
“The contractor must immediately proceed with the second phase of the project, which involves installing streetlights on the newly built median and opening the bike lane that we can already see on one side of this road. All these measures are included in this same budget.”
Further works are continuing on Avenida de Femés, while the same contractor, Hermanos Tavío Santana, is also carrying out the comprehensive renovation of Avenida Papagayo, the main thoroughfare through Playa Blanca.
Yaiza Ayuntamiento is investing a further 2.6 million euros in the Avenida Papagayo project.
Noda and Lago visited the section covered by the second phase of the project on Wednesday, where they inspected the replacement of pavements and the removal of barriers.
“We have asked the company to work quickly to finish the sidewalk edges and continue paving all the way to the Ciudad Jardín roundabout. Regarding the first phase, which has already been completed, we can say that residents and businesses are satisfied with the addition of 65 new free parking spaces,” said Óscar Noda.
The mayor also apologised for any inconvenience caused by the various projects currently being carried out in Playa Blanca.
