Santa Cruz de Tenerife municipal upgrades

Overview

In late July 2026, the Santa Cruz de Tenerife city council launched a short‑term neighbourhood cleaning operation in the El Draguillo and El Rosarito districts, alongside a motion requesting state funding for a €2.2 million beach‑stabilisation project at Benijo. Infrastructure improvements continued with the reopening of La Rosa street in El Toscal following a €6 million overhaul. Concurrently, the municipality conducted resurfacing on Lope de Vega street and initiated an asphalt renewal project on Islas Canarias Avenue. The latter, costing approximately €269,111, began on 10 August and involves seven phases of demolition and asphalt application near the tram platform, causing traffic diversions and public transport disruptions for TITSA's Line 904. Further urban developments include the €3 million renovation of the Avenida de Anaga seafront promenade. Regarding the remodeling of Parque Santa Catalina de La Gallega, three companies have submitted bids for the project, which is expected to begin in the final quarter of 2026. On 24 August 2026, the city council finalized the legislative process for the Low Emission Zone (ZBE). As of 1 September, new mobility impacts have emerged. Accessibility works on Calle Güímar in the La Salud neighborhood, a €5.3 million investment, are affecting bus lines 904, 906, and 911. Simultaneously, a €494,000 resurfacing project on Avenida Benito Pérez Armas is being conducted in four nighttime phases, impacting several bus routes including lines 232, 903, and 974. By early September, the city reported that the ‘Impulso Urbano’ program had already seen over 20 streets and a parking area resurfaced through July and August. This program includes an initial €27 million investment for over one hundred projects through 2027, with a long-term budget of €100 million planned through 2030. Additionally, traffic reordering on Calle Galcerán and Calle Miraflores has been implemented to facilitate a new 60-unit housing development.
