The Granada City Council has awarded the works for the transformation of Doctor Martín Lagos and Afán de Ribera streets, a 523,000 euro intervention that will improve accessibility and renew service networks.

The works, set to begin in approximately one month, aim to modernize these thoroughfares, optimize accessibility, renew water supply and sanitation networks, and enhance the quality of public space in this city area. The action is part of the Municipal Works Plan 2024-2027, a program allocating nearly 40 million euros to over 60 urban improvements across various neighborhoods.
The project includes a comprehensive remodeling of Doctor Martín Lagos street, with wider sidewalks, a reordered roadway, and improved road safety through new, more resistant and non-slip pavements. A single 3.50-meter traffic lane will be maintained, with a more balanced space distribution to organize parking, including specific areas for motorcycles and freeing up space for pedestrians.
In parallel, work will be carried out on Tejeiro street, in the section between its intersection with Doctor Martín Lagos and Luis Braille street, where a single-lane road of about 2.70 meters with a differentiated central strip will be constructed. The new sidewalks will be wider and flush with the roadway, improving accessibility and facilitating pedestrian traffic in an area where current regulations are not met.
The intervention also includes improvements in Afán de Ribera, especially in its final section, where a single pedestrian-level platform will be created. This measure will eliminate architectural barriers and prioritize pedestrian traffic over vehicles in a particularly narrow point.
A fundamental part of this transformation is the comprehensive renovation of the water supply, sanitation, and service pipeline networks, which are deteriorated due to their age. This action, part of the Hydric Resilience Plan promoted by the Granada City Council together with Emasagra, will replace obsolete pipes with more efficient and secure ones, improving system operation and reducing supply incidents.
Finally, the existing lighting will be replaced with new municipal design columns featuring high-efficiency LED technology, significantly improving light at building entrances. The project will be completed with pavement renovation, the incorporation of new trees (bitter orange trees), landscaped areas, benches, waste bins, and urban furniture, creating greener, more comfortable streets designed for community living.
