News: Orihuela Costa Emergency Centre to be finished in 2019

The Councillor for Emergencies in Orihuela, Víctor Valverde, has said that the Council has completed the modifications on the final design for the Orihuela Costa Emergency Centre, located in La Zenia, Orihuela Costa, Costa Blanca.

A budget of 1,650,000 euros was initially envisaged for this project which has now been remodelled in order to comply with the new regulations.

The facilities will accommodate the Guardia Civil, Policía Nacional, Policía Local, a SAMU base, Civil Proctection, Firefighters and also forest brigades.

New rest and recreation areas have now been included in the project, for which according to the Mayor the bulk of the work is already done because the structure of the building is raised. The works for the construction of this Emergency Centre have been stopped since 2011, when the building company left the job and went into insolvency.

The Orihuela Costa Emergency Centre is now set to be put out to tender before the summer and the works are expected to conclude by June 2019.
