Estepona town hall has announced the tender for the extension and operation of the Arroyo Enmedio sports areas, where there are plans to construct seven football pitches of various sizes, a green area, a bio-healthy circuit and a space for model cars.

The contract, which is valued at 4.3 million euros, includes a clause allowing for the pitches to be used on 25 days a year for municipal public use. The company awarded the contract will be responsible for managing the area for 40 years in exchange for a payment of 5,000 euros to the town hall.

Once the work has been completed, the west end of Estepona will have a natural grass 11-a-side football pitch, a natural grass seven-a-side football pitch and an artificial grass pitch, as well as four synthetic five-a-side football pitches.

The current changing rooms and other facilities, including the gym, storeroom and reception, will also be extended. With regard to the rental of the seven and 11-a-side football pitches, the contractor will be obliged to apply the public prices reflected in the town hall by-laws.

The extension of the facilities will also include the creation of an green area, which will feature a pedestrian walkway running through the two areas. The first of these will be located in the northern section of the area and will consist of a bio-healthy circuit. The second, further south, will have a circuit for model cars.
