Educational and public service infrastructure in Spain is facing scrutiny regarding capacity and safety. In Alcañiz, approximately 600 students at an Adult School have raised concerns over the legality and safety of their facilities, citing poor ventilation, a lack of emergency exits, and the absence of an evacuation plan. Meanwhile, in Sagunto, local political factions are demanding the construction of new primary and secondary schools to replace prefabricated classrooms and rehabilitate stalled projects.

In addition to facility concerns, public transport services are experiencing significant overcrowding. In Salamanca, the Buscyl service is struggling to accommodate vocational training students, as service reinforcement has not kept pace with increased passenger flow. Similarly, in Alicante, urban bus services are facing shortages that lead to long waits and vehicles passing stops without being able to board passengers, a situation workers attribute to a structural deficit in fleet and personnel.
