The works, which began on April 16, 2026, have an execution period of five months and focus on replacing the current asbestos cement and high-density polyethylene pipes with modern ductile iron ones. This modernization covers an area of 1,958 square meters and includes the installation of 130 new water connections.

The streets affected by this significant improvement include Puerto El Pino, Puerto de la Media Luna, Puerto de los Pescadores, Puerto de las Grajas, Puerto Los Castillejos, Puerto de la Breña, Puerto Málaga, and Pasaje Puerto Blanco. The new network will run along the roadway, next to the curbs, ensuring continuous service to residents throughout the intervention.

The mayor of Mijas, Ana Mata, visited the site to oversee the start of the works and verify the provision of a temporary parking area at the end of Puerto Los Castillejos street. This measure aims to minimize inconvenience to residents, as the works involve the demolition of street pavements and their subsequent replacement, along with affected manholes and services.

This action is crucial for optimizing the municipality's hydraulic infrastructure, contributing to more efficient water use and reducing frequent leaks and breakdowns in the existing network. The modernization of the distribution network will significantly improve the quality of service for all citizens of Osunillas.
