VOTING is now open for the Alicante Trade Awards in which more than 100 companies will compete.
Voting by the public is open until March 19.
All the companies that are candidates competing can be found and voted for in the vote for your favourite business section on the website https://premiosde comercio.alicante.es.
This year the city of Alicante has broken records with a whopping 110 companies from the hotel and catering, trade, crafts and services sectors registered to compete for the 17 awards with prizes valued at €35,000.
The councillor for Trade and Hospitality, Lidia Lopez, has been very pleased with the response to the campaign promoted by the city council to “boost and recognise our local trade and business sector, as well as to achieve greater excellence and competitiveness in business, rewarding both their daily work, effort, and professionalism in the city.”
The councillor confirmed: “Please vote. In this edition, the economic prizes have been reinstated to recognise professionals and companies in Alicante that contribute to making the city more competitive and better, and with such important economic incentives to help them.”
Major road improvements
ALICANTE Provincial Council is investing more than €2 million in road improvements in the TeuladaMoraira and Benissa areas. The improvements include resurfacing works and the creation of cycling and pedestrian lines on the CV745 and CV746, among others.
Meanwhile, in the last four years, the CV746 from Calpe to Moraira has been improved, with an investment of more than €435,000, the adaptation of the CV749 Benissa to Jalon, with €160,000, and the improvement of the road surface of the CV750 from Jalon to Benissa, with €259,500. The road surface from Benissa to Senija will be improved, raised pedestrian crossings will be installed, and a new cyclingpedestrian lane from Benissa to Senija costing €160,000 is in the pipeline.
Last week, taking advantage of the low season, a stretch of the CV746 from Moraira to Calpe was resurfaced, a pedestrian crossing was added, and a continuous double axis was installed to stop dangerous manoeuvres and turns. Finally, cylindrical beacons and reflectors have been provided.
