A series of road in the Genal Valley will get a much needed boost in investment over the coming months with the approval today of extra funding from the provincial highway authority.
The MA-7306 road from Cartajima to the A-397, and the MA-7303 Cartajima to Júzcar will receive a total of 150,000€ each for improvements and resurfacing.
100,000€ each will also be spent on the MA-8302, MA-7400, and MA-8307, with specific projects being improvements to the MA-8302 to Ma-8301 road at Genalguacil.
In addition, 100,000€ will see the Arriate MA-700 to Ronda road resurfaced with new tar, and problem areas where potholes are a perennial problem fixed.
In tourism news, Benarrabá will get a new birdwatching area, described as the best in Andalucía, and 103,000€ will be spent creating a new museum in Gaucín at the castle, with a special exhibit honouring Spain’s War of Independence from France in 1812.
I’ve been living in this lovely area of Western Andalucia for the last 20 years or so and dedicate most of my time to the running of English language tourist information websites for the towns of Cádiz, Ronda, Grazalema, the famous or infamous Caminito del Rey, and also Wildside Holidays, which promotes sustainable and eco-friendly businesses running wildlife and walking holidays in Spain.
