Altea
Valencia Life of April 23 reported the following:
SEAFRONT AREA TO BE REFORMED
It has been revealed that the Altea seafront between the Algar River estuary and the fishing port is to be reformed and revitalized over the next two years at a cost of some 9.6 million Euros. The plan calls for two underground car parks, the entire seafront to be a pedestrian area, and the creation of two huge public squares. Presented by Vicente Martinez, the local director of Coasts, it is completely different from the plan approved by Altea Town Hall in March of 2000, and which was included in the State budget of the Partido Popular for 2004, but was later cancelled when the Socialists assumed Government. Under this latest plan, the Altea beach front area will be increased from 15,000 square metres to 115,000 square metres and two large jetties will protrude into the sea as protection. Altea MayorMiguel Ortiz stated that the project 'was the second most important project for Altea following the regeneration of the old part of the town'.
