The project, which lasted five months and was completed on schedule, has replaced the old asbestos-cement and polyethylene pipes with new ductile iron conduits. This modernization, covering 1,400 linear meters, will directly benefit more than 400 residents across seven streets in the neighborhood.
The streets involved were Puerto El Pino, Puerto de la Media Luna, Puerto de los Pescadores, Puerto de las Grajas, Puerto de los Castillejos, Puerto de la Breña, Puerto Málaga, and Pasaje Puerto Blanco. The work included the installation of 130 household connections and 35 general network valves.
The renovation, carried out by the public company Acosol, part of the Mancomunidad de Municipios de la Costa del Sol Occidental, aims to enhance sustainability and efficiency in water usage, minimizing leaks and breakdowns that affected the previous network.
Additionally, the project involved the construction of 42 sanitation manholes for connections that lacked inspection points. This measure will facilitate future cleaning and maintenance of the general sewage network.
“"This represents a significant step forward in terms of sustainability, as it will contribute to more efficient water use, reducing leaks and frequent breakdowns in the existing network."
