7 million Euros for repair of storm damage along Costa Brava coast
More articles on this topic: VisitBlanes.com — The Cabinet of Spain has made nearly €7 million available for repair work to be carried out along the beaches of the Costa Brava, in the province of Girona (Catalonia).
The work is necessary to repair extensive storm damage to beaches and beachfront roads in Tossa de Mar, San Feliu de Guixols, Platja d’Aro, Sant Antoni de Calonge, Cadaqués, Port de la Selva, L’Escala and Blanes.
The extraordinarily destructive storm, on boxing day last December, damaged promenades and walkways, as well as the harbor of Blanes — where several fishing ships and tourist ferries also were destroyed.
In the town of Blanes, the current status of the Paseo Marítimo S’Abanell — the promenade along the beach of S’Abanell — poses a significant danger to the safety of pedestrians and users of the beach, as well as some buildings near the promenade, whose foundation could be affected in case of new storms.
A 500-meter long area that is most effected will be strengthened with rockfill, and additional sand will be deposited on the beach.
The Cabinet also earmarked €1 million for repair work in the coastal areas of El Vendrell and Alcanar in the province of Tarragona.
