After almost 20 years of being unused, the town of Puerto de la Cruz in Tenerife has officially begun the process of demolishing the old bus station, which was closed in 2009 due to its deteriorated condition. This marks the first tangible step towards an ambitious urban renewal plan aiming to transform a key parcel in the heart of the city. The announcement was made by the Sustainable City department, led by councillor David Hernández, who confirmed that the drafting of the demolition project has been contracted to the public company Gesplan, the Public Management and Environmental Planning Company.

A strategic investment to transform the town centre

The demolition project, with a budget of 44,000 euros, is expected to have a drafting period of five months. The demolition itself will require an investment of 1.5 million euros. The area in question encompasses more than 15,000 square metres and is bordered by Paseos Hermanos Fernández Perdigón, Paseo del Jardinero, as well as El Peñón and El Pozo streets, also including the iconic Plaza Francisco Afonso Carrillo.

“We are facing one of the most significant urban projects of recent decades. We take the first steadfast step to transform an abandoned space into a hub of economic, social, and urban revitalisation,” remarked David Hernández, who is also the first deputy mayor.

The councillor emphasised that the goal is to make this space a sustainable, modern, and inclusive reference for the city’s future. He also mentioned that once the project is drafted, they expect to begin contracting the works within the year, thanks to the already available budget funds.

From outdated station to new urban centre

The old bus station was once a central hub for interurban transport in northern Tenerife until it was closed in 2009 due to structural deficiencies. Since then, the building has stood unused, a degraded space in a strategic part of the town centre.

However, the new project goes beyond mere demolition. The urban proposal includes:

– A large public plaza for cultural and social activities.
– Commercial buildings to boost the local economy.
– A four-level underground car park with 900 spaces to ease central traffic.
– A multifunctional building for social, administrative, and cultural use.

All of this will be carried out with sustainability, energy efficiency, and safety in mind, in compliance with current regulations. With the awarding of the project drafting, the preparation of structural, environmental, and urban studies will commence, allowing for optimal conditions for the demolition. Meanwhile, work is already underway on the final design of the future urban facilities set to replace the old station.
