Benejúzar boost
Benejúzar has kicked off its shopping voucher campaign, with sales open until December 1 or until vouchers are sold out.
Vouchers are available in person for residents over 60 or those affected by the digital divide (ID required). Supplies are limited, so early purchase is encouraged.
For more details or to purchase vouchers online, head to the website: benejuzarbonoconsumo.es.
Aspe access
Aspe is making significant strides in extending the Tarafa River cycle path, a project designed to connect this popular route with the Camino del Puente del Hierro.
Currently, construction is underway on the final section, which spans just over one and a half kilometres, with only 120 meters left to complete the connection. This segment is expected to be finished by the end of the year.
The project involves cleaning and clearing the area to create a two-metre-wide path, suitable for cyclists and pedestrians who frequent the route.
By the end of the year, nature enthusiasts will have the opportunity to enjoy this new pathway, which links two key natural routes in the municipality.
The aim is to connect the Tarafa River path with the beginning of the Camino Puente del Hierro, located in the natural area of Los Algezares, ultimately expanding the cycle route to a total of 14 kilometres.
Last call
San Fulgencio reminds residents that although shopping vouchers are no longer available for purchase, they can still be used until November 17. Don’t miss the chance to enjoy great deals at participating establishments before the deadline!
