Ingeniero Mira: repairing the street also means explaining the reasoning

A street in good condition is not a luxury: it is part of the services the Town Hall must provide consistently. On Ingeniero Mira, opposite the waterwheel, the broken, sunken paving stones have been removed and the driving lane has been resurfaced. Work has also been carried out on the pedestrian crossings in the area.

The repair was necessary. But the debate should not stop at comparing the street before and after the work. Was this the most durable and suitable solution for the street? Paving stones and tarmac have different characteristics; what matters is that the decision is based on clear criteria for safety, maintenance and cost, not simply on the urgency of covering up the problem.

Residents do not need grand promises, but well-maintained streets and straightforward explanations of how public money is spent. Time will tell: if the area remains in good condition and the pedestrian crossings do their job, the work will have served its purpose. Carrying out repairs is an obligation; doing them properly and being accountable are too.
