This week, the expansion works on the municipal cemetery have been completed, a project that represents an investment of €196,976.59 and adds 111 new niches and substantially improves the existing facilities.
The project, which was awarded to Vías y Obras Aitana, involved the construction of a new level with capacity for 111 additional niches distributed across four modules, all on a plot adjacent to the newest part of the cemetery. The project also includes significant aesthetic and functional improvements, such as the creation of green areas with dry stone walls and the installation of a new irrigation system.
This project, which responds to population growth and the current needs of the municipality, is part of a broader improvement plan. "This project is only the first step on a longer journey. We have new phases planned that will shape our vision of a cemetery that is more than just a place of farewell. We want to create a space where serenity and beauty invite reflection, where gardens and traditional stone walls help us feel at peace," said Marco Bittner, councillor responsible for the Parque del Descanso Eterno.
The mayoress, Ana Sala, accompanied by councillor Marco Bittner and municipal technicians, visited the works yesterday to check on their progress.
