The Mairena del Aljarafe Town Hall has activated the first axis of the Mairena Al Día plan, a contract worth 2.4 million euros for four years that includes the repair of pavements, curbs, and pedestrian crossings.
The new municipal pavement maintenance service starts in Mairena del Aljarafe with an investment of 2.4 million euros for the next four years. The contract, the first of the six axes of the Mairena Al Día plan, will cover the repair of pavements, curbs, pedestrian crossings, and horizontal signage.
A permanent team for the streets
The service will have a minimum team of a service manager, three first-class masonry officials, and three workers. It will also have specific vehicles: a workshop van, a 3,500-kilo van with hooks and tanks, a transport van, and two inspection vehicles. The aim is to respond swiftly to the daily needs of the public highway.
The mayor, Antonio Conde, highlighted that "we want our residents to find the pavements of their streets and squares better maintained and more accessible." The mayor emphasized that "Mairena continues to grow and our public services must grow at the same pace."
Specific actions and accessibility
Among the planned tasks are the repair of pavement in sidewalks and pedestrian areas, replacement of curbs, raising of inspection chambers, and adapting pedestrian crossings for people with reduced mobility. It also includes public lighting and communications work when they affect the public highway, as well as specific repairs of asphalt and horizontal signage.
The Mairena Al Día plan mobilizes a total of 11.3 million euros to modernize six essential services: gardening, pavements, lighting, tree pits, school painting, and the citizen services fleet. Conde acknowledged that these services "were becoming insufficient" and that they are "key to the quality of life of the residents."
Facing the residents
The new service starts after the renewal of the street cleaning service in 2023. Residents will notice improvements in their daily lives: smoother pavements, well-maintained curbs, and adapted pedestrian crossings. The Town Hall expects the work to begin immediately in the most deteriorated areas of the municipality.
Conde insisted that "the Mairena Government has great future projects, but also everyday ones." The launch of this service is the first step of a plan that seeks to ensure the city grows without neglecting the basics.
