Seville City Council continues with the comprehensive rehabilitation of Gran Vía Park, in San Pablo–Santa Justa, with an investment of over €180,000. The second phase focuses on the pavement.
Seville City Council is progressing with the second of three phases of the comprehensive improvement project for Gran Vía Park, located in the San Pablo–Santa Justa district. The action, which exceeds €180,000 in investment, aims to modernise one of the green lungs of the district and improve its accessibility and infrastructure.
The first phase is already complete and involved the complete renewal of the benches and bins in the park. The new elements, made from recycled and recyclable materials, have a more modern and functional design, according to the City Council.
The current works focus on the rehabilitation of the printed concrete pavement, which had large cracks and significant wear due to continuous use. The intervention includes cleaning with high-pressure water, sealing cracks, applying two layers of coloured cement paint, and two layers of protective resin to extend the lifespan of the surface.
The delegate for Parks and Gardens, Evelia Rincón, stated that “investments in parks not only improve their image but also contribute to ensuring that residents enjoy safer, more comfortable, and pleasant public spaces.” Rincón added that acting on furniture and pavements helps prolong the life of these facilities.
Once this phase is completed, the third and final phase will be undertaken, which will involve the complete renewal of the children's play areas. The new equipment will incorporate accessibility and inclusion criteria and will be designed for children up to 14 years old, according to the City Council.
“Our goal is for parks to evolve at the same pace as the needs of residents,” explained Rincón, who emphasised that adapted play equipment will allow more children to share leisure spaces on equal terms.
This action is in addition to the inauguration, in April 2026, of a new dog park in the space between Kansas City and Villas de Cuba avenues, with an investment of over €30,000. The area, separated from residential zones, features an agility circuit, a perimeter fence one metre high, and benches made from recycled plastic.
With this intervention, Seville City Council reinforces its commitment to maintaining the city’s green spaces, according to municipal sources.
