Torrevieja puts the €80,000 Torreta Florida redevelopment design out to tender
The project will cover roads on both sides of the Vía Verde and must be completed within four months of the contract being signed.
Torrevieja Town Council has put the contract to draw up a redevelopment design for Torreta Florida’s 10-A sector, within the La Torreta Partial Plan, out to tender for €80,000. The contract will define and cost the future works, but does not mean they will go ahead yet. The Local Government Board approved the tender on 23 October 2026.
The contract, with a budget of €66,115.70 before VAT, is being awarded through a simplified open procedure. Interested companies can submit their bids until 23:59 on 10 November 2026. The design must be completed within four months from the day after the contract is signed.
The work covers streets and pavements, with improvements to accessibility, road surfaces, street lighting, signage, street furniture and utilities. The successful team must also assess the water and sewerage networks and rainwater drainage. The design will divide the works into three phases, which may be put out to tender and carried out separately.
The area includes the roads on both sides of the Vía Verde. The former railway trackbed is not part of this work, as it has a separate project. Green spaces outside the scope of the works are also generally excluded.
The councillor for Urban Services, Sandra Sánchez, said that many pavements are in poor condition and too narrow, making it difficult to bring them up to current accessibility standards. The council also points to the general lack of a rainwater drainage network, apart from isolated works, and to problems recorded during periods of heavy rainfall.
The bids will be scored out of 100, with up to 51 points for quality and 49 for price. Within the technical section, the proposal will be worth up to 35 points; sustainability and the lead technician’s experience can each earn up to eight points.
The tender follows other water-related projects in the area. In July 2024, the council presented plans to expand and improve Torreta Florida Flood Park. Its first phase was put out to tender for €689,881, including VAT, with a planned completion period of six months. The park was designed to temporarily store rainwater and reduce the risk of flooding in nearby streets and homes.
