Mobile ITV

AS a motorcycle or moped owner, ensuring the safety of your vehicle is not only essential for your own safety, but also that of those around you. Securing an ITV certificate can also help drivers in Spain to avoid fines.

VEIASA, the Spanish vehicle inspection authority, has introduced mobile ITV units specifically designed to inspect two­wheeled vehicles and certify their use. Mojacar Pueblo is set to host a mobile ITV unit on Tuesday, March 28.

A VALUABLE upgrade to Cuevas del Almanzora’s Andrés Soler football field will make life more pleasant for all fans, visitors and athletes who want to watch games and train safely and in style!

The local council installed a new shaded area in part of the stadium’s stands, making the stands a more comfortable space.

The council acted in response to a request from the club for the large canopy shade which is held up by a tilted frame. The canopy offers shade without obstructing the view of the field.

During a visit to the football field, councillor for Sports, Miriam Quintana, expressed her excitement about the upgrade saying

“Now we have a beautiful space to watch our football games protected from the sun. In the next few weeks, we will be installing the remaining canopy to complete the stands and provide an even larger shaded area.”

This upgrade follows a renovation and expansion of the locker rooms, toilets, and stands three years ago, which also made the field more player and audience ­ friendly, as well as encouraging locals to get involved in sports.

Drivers can bring twowheeled vehicles for inspection between 12.15pm and 1.30pm in Plaza Rey Alabez.

In Spain, all twowheeled vehicles are required to undergo an ITV (MOT) test three years after registration, and every two years thereafter.

The inspection ensures that the vehicle is in good condition and meets the necessary safety standards. The mobile units aim to make the inspection process more convenient for motorcycle and moped owners, as they no longer have to travel to a purpose­built inspection centre.

THE town hall has now published its Beach Plan and confirms that Roquetas de Mar wants the high season to begin at Easter.

All the infrastructures and services offered by the town hall on the beaches are a consequence of a demand by the users who occupy the coastline of Roquetas de Mar, whether visitors or locals.

This is always under the premise of offering guarantees of the quality and safety of the beaches, so that, due to the high occupancy during the bathing season, the town hall of Roquetas de Mar is obliged to place and maintain these facilities and services.

These movable assets are intended, in addition, to provide safety for beach users and also to improve accessibility, prioritising
