The project, with an awarded budget of 154,204.85 euros, was financed by the Canary Islands Government's Ministry of Tourism and Employment. The work has updated the public restrooms at Las Cucharas, Playa Bastián, and El Jablillo, three highly frequented tourist spots in Lanzarote. Facilities at Las Cucharas and Playa Bastián are now operational, with El Jablillo set to open soon.
The renovations included replacing sanitary ware, updating plumbing and electrical systems, improving fixtures and finishes, and implementing measures to enhance accessibility, safety, and hygiene. The comprehensive intervention aims to modernize the infrastructure to meet current user needs, ensuring greater functionality and comfort.
The mayor of Teguise, Olivia Duque, highlighted the project's significance, stating it represents "an important step in modernizing our public services along the coast, improving facilities used daily by residents and visitors, and ensuring more accessible, functional spaces adapted to those who enjoy our beaches and avenues."
The Councilor for Tourism and Beaches, Rita Hernández, emphasized that "the quality of our coastline also depends on the services we offer," noting the renovation improves conditions for both residents and tourists. Councilor for Roads and Works, Eugenio Robayna, added that an "integral reform" was carried out to ensure safer and more functional public restrooms.
The completion of these works significantly enhances public amenities in three of Costa Teguise's busiest coastal areas, particularly benefiting families with children, the elderly, athletes, and individuals with reduced mobility. This initiative is part of the municipality's ongoing efforts in the conservation, maintenance, and modernization of public infrastructure, developed through collaboration between the Teguise City Council and other administrations.
