These work will expand the hydraulic capacity of the area's supply network as well as minimize breakdowns

Hidralia, a concessionaire of drinking water and sewerage service in San Fernando, is carrying out the work to improve the supply network of a section of Buen Pastor street, which will allow the improvement of the water supply to the area, thus minimizing breakdowns in that section of the street as a result of the age of the pipes.

The work focuses on the interval between Avenida de la Constitución and Pintor Torres Aleu street, so it will affect about 250 meters from Calle Buen Pastor. In this action, a total of 500 meters of pipes, placed on both sidewalks, will be installed, replacing the current fibrocement network, with new ductile casting and polyethylene networks, which in turn will allow to expand the hydraulic capacity and sectorization of the supply network in that area.

The action will be used to install all new townhouses, a total of 55 on budgets, as well as sectorization valves, hydrants and hydrants. A pressure regulating valve shall also be installed at the end of that section to optimize the operation of the supply network on nearby streets. During the work, provisional drinking water networks and data will be available for each home, so that residents do not run out of water as a result of such work.

The budget of the action is more than 130,000 euros from the investment committed by Hidralia in the extension of the contract and that has a heading of one million euros for improvements in the sewerage and supply of the city.

A fund of which more than 230,000 euros have already been invested, highlighting among the actions the implementation of the EBAR Fadricas (with almost 30,000 euros), network renovations in Buen Pastor totaling another 30,000 euros, as well as in General Serrano 16,700 euros or in Battle of the Ebro with an investment of more than 10,000 euros. To which now we would have to add the more than 130,000 euros of the work in Buen Pastor.

In addition, the 4.1 million aimed at the complete reform of sanitation, storm and drinking water networks in the Bazán slum must be added. In total, more than five million euros contributed by Hydralia for improvements to the city's hydraulic infrastructures and to be implemented over the next few years.
