The works have consisted of cleaning and widening the road, planting 800 specimens of native species, building 5 water wells and placing a carved stone with its name on the tap.
The mayor of Lorca, Diego José Mateos, and the councilors of Local Development and Sports, Isabel Casalduero and Irene Jódar, have visited this morning the adaptation work carried out on the access hiking trail to 'El Cejo de los Enamorados'.
Mateos explained that "the action begins at the Castle of Lorca through a path that begins at the Fountain of the Pylons and ends at the source of the Cejo, that is, we are talking about an approximate distance of 4.5 km."
The First Edil has detailed that "the works have been carried out thanks to the students of the Program for the Promotion of Agricultural Employment 'Regional Councils' and have consisted of the pruning, cleaning and widening of the road as well as the manual recovery of the road platform through the removal of natural earth material that has been sliding off the slopes. And the restoration and replacement of the road signposts has been carried out. "
Mateos Molina has reported that "the planting and hydrological correction has also been carried out by making small palisades to sustain the soil in runoff areas, using the branches and trunks of fallen trees in order to collect sediments from the rapid rains that so much damage is done in the forest soil; about 300 specimens of plants of native species of umbrian zone and about 500 trees of the variety of carrascos and pine trees have been planted. "
The mayor has highlighted the construction of "five new water pools: two of them result from channeling the loss of the driving arches that flooded the road and the other three are distributed along the road, serving these so that the animals of the area can drink and highlights, in addition, the intervention in the source of 'The Lover's Eyebrow' in which it has been placed on the front of the tap outlet of a piece of carved stone where the name of said source appears " .
"The work has lasted for 6 months, with a total of 36 workers divided into two phases of 3 months and with 18 workers each, included in the Agreement of Collaboration Sepe-Regional Councils of Employment and will conclude in the next days will end the intervention with the restoration of signs, the viewpoint and the placement of nesthouses for insectivorous birds along the route, "said the First Edil.
Diego José Mateos has thanked the Department of Local Development and the students of the Regional Employment Councils for the speed and professionalism with which they have carried out some necessary work of reconditioning and adaptation of one of the most important hiking trails in Lorca, which daily they are filled with people who enjoy outdoor sports in an unbeatable environment and spectacular landscape.
