The island corporation will allocate funds from the Canary Islands Development Fund (Fdcan) for the new layout and channeling of roads LP-217 and LP-2172. These routes are crucial for connecting this area of southeastern La Palma. Interested companies have until June 17 to submit their bids on the Public Sector Contracting Platform.
The project's main objective is to enhance the safety and functionality of the accesses, particularly addressing points vulnerable to hydrological risks. The Los Morenos Environmental Complex, located on the LP-2172, is an essential infrastructure for waste management on the island.
The President of the Cabildo, Sergio Rodríguez, emphasized the importance of these interventions on the road network, framing them within the insular government's strategy to improve strategic roads. He highlighted that enhancing these accesses is crucial for the operation of essential services, such as waste treatment.
Meanwhile, the Insular Minister of Infrastructure, Darwin Rodríguez, detailed that the intervention will include the construction of structures, culverts, and a bridge to improve water drainage and reinforce road safety during rainfall. Works will be carried out on both LP-217 and LP-2172.
On LP-217, a culvert and a rake with a sand trap will be installed to manage runoff. On LP-2172, two drainage structures will be built, including an 11-meter bridge, and a section of the current access will be modified to ensure continuous connection to the Environmental Complex.
