The Ministry of Presidency and Development has begun work this week to rehabilitate the 67 homes located on the municipality's Quevedo Street.
The mayor, Joaquín Hernández, visited this morning the works, which will have a term of execution of six months, along with the director general of Planning, Architecture and Housing, Laura Sandoval.
The investment of this action amounts to 700,000 euros with which will return to these homes optimal living conditions and will contribute to improving the quality of life of people living in them.
The rehabilitation of these houses is part of the regional policies to guarantee access to housing worthy of the people who need it most, and is part of the Regeneration and Urban Renewal Area 'La Vega del Segura'.
The first action in the work will be the replacement of the sanitation network as well as cleaning and adaptation of the cameras.
In the first half of August, the rehabilitation of the roofs will begin and by mid-month will begin the recovery of facades that will consist of the removal of the current horizontal metal structure and replacement by another.
Accessibility will also be improved through the creation of new accesses through the improvement and adaptation of the interior courtyard.
Also on the visit were the Councilor for Urbanism, Carmen Baños, and the councilor for Works and Services, Francisco García.
