There are 860 kilometres and 118 roads that need to be maintained in Malaga province, which is why it is necessary to prioritise and carry out improvements. Malaga's provincial authority (Diputación de Malaga) has just formalised contracts with more than ten companies and will immediately activate an ambitious resurfacing plan to improve 14 roads in the Malaga network. The total amount awarded is 4.2 million euros. The contractors now have between three and four months, depending on each case, to improve the layout of the roads, which means that they are expected to be ready just before spring.
The work is to improve the road surface in sections with potholes, bumps and lumps, in brief, any major deformity in the road surface. In some cases it may well include the repair and adaptation of ditches. The initial budget, which was given the green light by the Diputación in May, set aside an allocation of 5.3 million euros, which did not need to be used in its entirety following the tenders submitted. The tenders have attracted the interest of numerous specialised companies.
The roads to benefit are in the Serranía de Ronda, Sierra de las Nieves, Valle del Guadalhorce, Axarquía and Antequera areas. This is the third road reinforcement plan carried out in the last three years on roads under provincial jurisdiction. In the previous two a total of 40 roads were repaired.
The specifications for this tender were based on the projects drafted by the department responsible for all aspects of the provincial road network, including roadworks. They place great emphasis on the connectivity of the smaller access roads to municipalities with other higher-capacity and faster roads.
These are the 14 roads scheduled for these improvements:
1. Access to Canillas de Aceituno (MA-41016) to the A-7205. The resurfacing will be carried out by Hormigones Asfálticos Andaluces for 404,816 euros.
