A new start for Carles Buïgas Avenue
This Saturday, Salou celebrated the inauguration of the second phase of a remodeling project that seeks to revitalize Carles Buïgas Avenue, consolidating it as an example of sustainability and quality of life. This initiative not only transforms physical space, but also redefines the experience of its users.
A space designed for people
The new section of the avenue, which now extends between Murillo and Torremolinos streets, has been designed with the aim of creating a friendlier environment, where nature and culture can coexist. With a remodeled surface that now occupies 9,500 square meters, the space is an example of how shopping and tourist centers can be more accessible and pleasant.
The institutional presence at the inauguration
The event was attended by political figures, including Mayor Pere Granados and the Deputy Delegate of the Spanish Government in Tarragona, Elisabeth Romero. Its participation emphasizes the importance of this initiative for the municipality, with a committee that included both local authorities and members of the community.
Art and history integrated into design
One of the highlights of the remodeling is the inclusion of art and history in public space. The 16 stone medallions, by the artists Teresa Felip and Ester Ferrando, offer a unique view of the most significant moments of Salou, while a mural by Philip illustrates key events of the local past.
Environmental and technological innovation
The reform is not only limited to aesthetics; A new drainage network has also been implemented to prevent flooding, and LED lighting has been installed, which reduces energy consumption. With these improvements, the avenue becomes an example of how technology can improve urban quality of life.
A sustainable future for Salou
Mayor Granados said that this transformation is a step towards a more sustainable and inclusive city. With the reduction of motorized traffic, the environmental quality of the space has been improved, and optimum conditions have been created for local trade and citizen coexistence.
Institutional Commitment and long -term vision
Romero emphasized that this project is an example of how European funds can transform urban realities, putting the needs of people at the center of public policies. The remodeling of Carles Buïgas Avenue is not only an urban action, but also represents a city model that is committed to sustainability and social cohesion.
Final reflections
With this renewal, Salou not only improves his image, but also makes a commitment to a more green and accessible future. The transformation of Avenida Carles Buïgas is an example of how urban needs can be integrated with the aspirations of the community, paving the way for a new paradigm of urban life.
