Calpe City Council has launched this week a new Citizen Information Service with WhatsApp and Telegram.
The aim of this initiative is to provide citizens with information of interest quickly and easily. These two instant messaging channels will provide information on assistance deadlines, implementation of new initiatives, municipalities, schedules, etc.
Both channels be helpful in emergency situations, as they allow citizens to be warned of road closures, heavy rainfall or school closures, to name but a few examples of recent disasters that have occurred in the region.
Ecovidrio, the non-profit organisation responsible for the recycling of glass containers in Spain, has awarded the municipality of Calpe for its good results in the selective collection of glass containers during the summer months.
This year, 2019, 431,170 kilograms of glass were collected, 3% more than last year, demonstrating citizens' commitment to sustainability and recycling.
