A PROJECT to create a river beach in Murcia City along the banks of the río Segura has been authorised.

It will be the first river beach in the region and it will be located in the area of the river near Rincón de Beniscornia, La Raya, and Rincón de Seca.

José Mateos said his demands for a new hospital are justified as the Rafael Méndez “has become too small.”

The population of Lorca has grown from 60,000 inhabitants in 1990 to 100,000 inhabitants.

And now that the government has advised that another 850 affordable homes are to be built in the region the mayor is eager to find out the plans the government has to provide the facilities and services that will be needed also.

He finished by saying “a new hospital is necessary to improve healthcare and reduce waiting lists.”

The budget for this project is €42,460. They plan to adapt the banks of the river Segura, widening them and creating an area where the public can then have access to the water.

The plan also includes the addition of a riverside woodland where they will plant trees such as white poplars, hackberry trees, willows, elms, and fig trees among others. They will plant shrubs and climbing plants in this area also. The idea is to create a relaxing, biodiverse area in the city.
