The Alaquàs Town Council has begun the progressive expansion and renewal of urban furniture with the installation of over 300 bins, more than 400 bollards, and over 150 benches at various points in the municipality. This initiative will involve an investment of over 80,000 euros.
The Alaquàs Town Council has started the work to expand and renew urban furniture throughout the municipality. The initiative includes the installation of over 300 bins, 400 bollards, and 150 benches in streets, parks, and green areas, with an investment exceeding 80,000 euros.
The new items have been manufactured from high-resistance recycled plastic, a material that offers better performance in terms of maintenance and cleanliness. According to municipal sources, this type of furniture has greater durability and facilitates conservation tasks, as it can be cleaned with water and is more resistant to urine.
The bins, in particular, have a larger capacity and a top lid that prevents waste from being scattered by the wind. Additionally, their design is intended to encourage more appropriate use of this urban element, contributing to keeping public spaces cleaner.
In the coming weeks, workers will progressively install the new furniture at various points in Alaquàs. The replacement will not only affect existing items but will also increase the current number, aiming to improve the functionality and sustainability of public spaces.
This initiative is part of the ongoing efforts by the council to enhance cleanliness and urban equipment in the municipality. With this renewal, the Town Council aims to provide a more cared-for and accessible environment for residents, who will see their streets and parks equipped with more waste collection points and resting areas.
The investment of over 80,000 euros adds to other funds allocated for the maintenance of public roads. The governing team highlights that the choice of recycled and durable materials serves a dual purpose: to reduce environmental impact and minimize replacement costs in the medium term.
The work will be carried out in different phases to avoid interfering with the daily life of the municipality. Residents will be able to see the new bins and benches being installed in their neighbourhoods, as well as the bollards that will delineate pedestrian areas or restricted transit zones.
With this measure, Alaquàs reinforces its commitment to more sustainable and functional urban planning, adapted to the current needs of the population. The renewal of urban furniture is one of the most visible actions for citizens, who will notice an immediate improvement in the comfort and cleanliness of common spaces.
The Town Council has reminded that the maintenance of these elements will be easier thanks to the chosen materials, which will allow extending their useful life and keeping the municipality in better condition for longer. The expectation is that the installation will be completed in the coming weeks, although the pace will depend on weather conditions and the logistics of the work.
The new benches, for their part, offer an ergonomic and durable design, intended to withstand daily use and the elements. The bins, with their top lid, prevent waste from spreading, a common problem on windy days.
In short, this initiative represents a further step in improving the public space of Alaquàs, with a clear focus on sustainability and efficiency. Citizens will be able to enjoy a cleaner, more orderly, and comfortable municipality, with furniture that combines durability, functionality, and respect for the environment.
