Urban infrastructure and environmental concerns reported in Mexico and Spain
In Delicias, Mexico, residents and drivers have reported damage to green areas along the Fernando Baeza Avenue expansion, specifically between the federal highway and Solidaridad Avenue. Complaints indicate that the installation of large metal billboards is causing the deterioration of trees in the central median through heavy machinery, excavation, and the weight of the structures.
In Orihuela, Spain, the PSOE political group is renewing demands for the removal of a wall from an old asylum that narrows Duque de Tamames street. The narrowing has hindered vehicle and pedestrian movement for years. Local councilor Milagros Lacárcel is seeking details on government actions regarding the building, which is owned by the Conselleria de Cultura, to restore street width and improve safety.
