The gateway Manterola, whose construction cost to city coffers and therefore citizens, around 6 million euros, is in a state of utter neglect.
The graffiti, the robin of their bins, wild plants growing between the paving, etc, gives us an idea of ​​which is an area that has been forgotten, not for citizens continually use, but for policymakers.
The bridge or bridge Alberca neighborhood, neoclassical work of great strength appears overgrown in their higher ground.
The space in this environment that encompasses the known Lorca as a source of gold and that once served to expand the water supply to the city, more than a place to teach, is a place to hide.
Located on the Avda. Santa Clara, on the side, which leads to the climb to the catwalk shows held by struts since 2011, the year of earthquakes, wild vegetation makes barely visible plus a heap of trash accents been abandoned, with consequent health problems for the area (mosquitoes, rodents ..)
The bed of the river is plagued Guadalentin trash, stones, rubbish, shopping carts and more.
Also, the power that lies beneath the walkway Manterola, appears completely destroyed, filled with earth and stones, because after the flood of 2012 has not done any cleaning intervention on the runway.
Since citizens-game citizenship, we believe that the actions of cleaning and maintenance in this area should be a priority, to avoid the bad image it gives our city for visitors (remembering that in such an environment the tourist office is located Lorca Workshop and time) as well as comfort of the citizens of Lorca.
Citizens asked the government team to take appropriate to be performed maintenance they deserve and to communicate to citizens when it will take place, again recalling the huge expenditure of public money invested in that area measures.
