The area of Sustainable City of the City Council of Cross port The necessary actions have begun this week to enable a new green area in a municipal plot located in the Jardines de Quintana Urbanization, on Rector Benito Rodríguez Ríos street, “so that it can be used by the residents of the area.”
The councilor of the area, David Hernández (ACP), points out that these works «are the answer to the commitment acquired in the past year with the neighborhood community of The toucan, as well as with the rest of the citizens of Porto regarding the protection of the municipality against climate change. We want to recover more green spaces to achieve a Cross port increasingly sustainable ”.
The works, carried out urgently, “respond to the fulfillment of the duty of conservation of a publicly owned space that it was in minimal conditions of health and hygiene, completely covered by vegetation, which invaded the sidewalks, and with accumulation of waste and rodents, as the residents of the area had been denouncing.
After the deratization actions carried out by the Department of Health, the improvement project commissioned from Zona Verde for 34,238 euros It includes the cleaning and clearing of the land, the creation of an interior path that can accommodate different activities and the perimeter fencing of the plot, including two gates that guarantee greater care of the space. Subsequently, a calisthenics circuit will be installed on artificial grass for public use.
«The recovery of this green area is closely linked to the generation of neighborhood relations and the sustainable maintenance of this community plot, since it was the inhabitants of the newly urbanized neighborhood who planted and cared for the trees that are still in the place and that will be recovered for this public space “, Hernández emphasizes.
