So much so that they will start next Monday.
Without big fuss, the company awarded these jobs, which has a budget of 4.4 million euros You have already met one of the first requirements: collect materials in a plot that is not on public roads to avoid as many inconveniences as possible.

Coordination

Javier Rivero proposes the works as a sweet transition to what the future street of La Rosa will be like. Thus, the work will be carried out in eight phases, plus a ninth consisting of the final paving of the entire track.
La Rosa has been divided into eight sections to run your rehabstarting with the zone between San Isidro and Pasaje Segunda de Ravina. Each of the phases has an estimated duration in terms of improvement work of four months, except for setbacks that may arise in the replacement of sanitation and other networks in which the subsoil of this area will also be intervened. . In the schedule established between the Councilor for Infrastructure and the company that won the competition, it is established that the first three phases will be completed before next summer to intervene precisely in the area of the Las Salesianas and La Rosa schools, coinciding with next summer, when the rehabilitation work of the road would have reached half of the 650 linear meters in which it is planned to act. In this way, it is intended to cause as little inconvenience as possible, even though it is a work in the main axis of the El Toscal neighborhood.
Javier Rivero will delve into the details of the first phase of the works that will be carried out from Monday and during the next four months with the residents of the area between San Isidro and Pasaje Segunda de Ravina. To facilitate the mobility of the residents affected by the closure of this area, the Infrastructure area will explain to the residents of the first area of the rehabilitation today the streets that remain open to traffic and the possibilities they have to travel from the street San Isidro to San Miguel, to go down through San Martín and access through Santiago.
In this way, it would allow accessibility to the residents of Señor de Tribulaciones street, Gaspar Fernández street or El Saludo street; these last two would be affected by the interruption of the works.
The Councilor for Infrastructure will present the alternative route for the transit of residents this afternoon, before the start of the work scheduled for Monday. It is also presented with the task done before the residents, since the Santa Cruz city council managed the purchase of a 1,400-square-meter plot that is located at number 54 on Calle de La Rosa, with the capacity to occupy almost thirty-five parking spaces. for vehicles, a part of which is removed from the central route.
Not only was the purchase a reality – which involved a disbursement of three million euros – but it is also ready to start up as parking lots for residents starting next Monday.
The La Rosa street remodeling it will equalize the level of the road with the creation of a single platform, combining a pedestrian area with another reserved for traffic and that will be delimited by the use of different pavements, with wider sidewalks than the current ones, for the enjoyment of the walk. The final configuration of the track will resemble the new Imeldo Serís. At the end of the two years of work, La Rosa will be a main road in Santa Cruz, for the enjoyment of its neighbors, between the Almeyda barracks that will connect near the Plaza del Príncipe.
