The contract for the draughting of the project and construction management for the development of land as park-and-ride parking has been approved by the Local Government Board of Torrevieja City Council. OWNplan – JARS, a joint venture, will be responsible for contracting the project. The project will be developed within a month, with a budget of €57,952.26.
Six publicly owned and presently vacant plots of land will be the subject of construction. These plots are located in various regions of the municipality. The municipality will receive over 150,000 additional square metres of temporary parking as a result of these initiatives, which are designed to alleviate traffic congestion in the city centre and promote the use of more sustainable modes of transportation.
The new parking sites will be located in strategic locations. One of them will be situated near the N-332, between the Acequión Canal, Calle Urbano Arregui, and Avenida de la Estación. Another will be situated at the intersection of Avenida de la Estación and Calle Ciudad de Barcelona, adjacent to the Acequión Public School. In addition, a plot of land will be established adjacent to the residential area of Parque de las Naciones, near the same national highway. A location will be established in the Torreta area between Avenida Ramón del Valle Inclán and Calle José María de Pereda and Emilia Pardo Bazán. An additional plot of land will be developed in the vicinity of Calle Juan Valera, between Avenida Rosa Mazón Valero and the CV-905. Lastly, the most expansive location will be situated on Avenida Delfina Viudes, adjacent to Antonio Soria Park and the weekly market, with a total surface area exceeding 90,000 square meters.
The initiative is in response to the increasing demand for parking spaces from both residents and visitors, as noted by the City Council. The provision of these spaces also aims to stimulate active mobility on foot or by bicycle, as well as to promote more efficient modes of transportation, such as public transport, shared mobility, and high-occupancy vehicles. The objective is to enhance the purity of air, reduce air pollution levels, improve traffic flow, and reduce the occupation of public space by private vehicles. This will contribute to the general well-being.
