New Promenade from Los Pozos, Puerto del Rosario to Playa Blanca

[Captain Sensible]

The green light has been given to build a promenade from Los Pozos in Puerto del Rosario to Playa Blanca.
It will cost 2.9 million euros.

Excuse my skepticism, where is the cash coming from? and I have read the official BS , and the time scale? 10/15 years, surely someone from Antigua should be lobbying to get the main beach repaired if there is that amount of Money available? I would have thought putting right what we have already made a shambles of should come before any new hairbrained scheme?

There's about one third of the population living in the capital. I think Puerto deserves a new promenade.  

Sam while I respect the comment about the population of PdR and being entitled to a promenade, I am more inclined to agree with my  🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Celtic cousin that they should correct the mess they made of the Caleta Beach before they start any other projects, same goes for all this Money being spent on repacking pavements in Caleta.

I don't think it's a PDR v Caleta issue Sam. I think people are just fed up with new projects being started when old ones are not completed. We know that funds come from different sources and can't be crossed from one project to another but we get frustrated with the unfinished or poorly finished projects casting a blight on our beautiful island. Some are private enterprises, some public, all seem to stagnate for ever once they hit problems.

So well expressed Tamars, thank you. 😘

For the mayor of Buenos Aires, Juan Jiménez, it is an important milestone in terms of leisure infrastructure in our capital, with a promenade that will continue the current and bring citizens to the old Parador enjoying the proximity to the sea in a relaxed walk or playing sports, with all the security and accessibility that a space like this guarantees.

Good news but what on earth has it to do with Buenos Aires?

Well spotted Tamara, I did not see it  I know there is a Puerto Rosario in Argentina, but how it got translated that way is odd.

I wonder will we ever see a time when this new Puerto del Rosario to Playa Blanca path joins up to the CDF to Costa de Antigua path.

The distance between the ends of each path would not be that far.

Work seems to be progressing well, although I've only seen it from the main road.

A couple of pictures from some days ago. Particularly in the second picture you can see significant progress on the stoned wall.
