The council has resolved through a simplified open procedure to award the works to the company Pavasal. The total cost of the project amounts to €411,921.51, VAT included, and will be financed entirely with the municipality's own funds. The works have a planned execution period of four months.
Municipal statements
The deputy mayor and councillor for Works and Urban Planning, Juan Chover, highlighted the council's investment capacity: "We have made a qualitative leap forward in terms of the council's capacity to invest". Chover added that the corporation has had to face, with its own resources, what he described as "the drastic cut in funding by the provincial authority with regard to works plans".
For his part, Mayor Basili Salort linked the intervention with demands put forward by residents: "This project is in line with the neighbourhood's demands". Salort explained that the project is being pursued in coordination with two other relevant initiatives of the term, the Fàbrica de Sabó and the Punt Jove.
In another statement, the mayor summed up the government team's overall approach: "We have a very clear idea of what Vergel we want". According to Salort, the aim is to move towards "a habitable, sustainable and pleasant place".
Context of the works
The project is part of a programme that also allocates aid for the rehabilitation of the Fàbrica de Sabó. The new streets will be linked with the renovation already carried out on Sant Lluís street, creating an accessible and continuous route to the Town Hall building.
The Town Hall expects the next phases of urban renewal to be directed at roads in worse condition, such as La Parra, Príncep d'Astúries and part of l'Almàssera, as well as busier thoroughfares such as Cervantes, Argentina and Mestre Serrano.
