The Service of Parks and Gardens, dependent of the Department of Modernization of the Administration and Urban Development, that directs Jose Guillén, has finished the installation of shade in the infantile zone in Carril of the Iniestas of Santiago and Zaraiche.
Thus, ten metal structures have been placed on posts in which a microperforated awning has been placed, covering all the children's games.
These works are joined to those that are also being carried out in Paseo de los Regulares de Melilla (Santiago and Zaraiche), Paseo Santa Águeda (Vistalegre), Plaza del Sagrado Corazón (Casillas), Jorge Manrique Street (Infante), Calle Músico Francisco Cebrián (Ranero) and Calle Pintor Molina Sánchez (El Esparragal).
"We work so that children can play throughout the year, protected from solar radiation and high temperatures." Parks and gardens are leisure and meeting areas for Murcian families, so it is essential that they are properly conditioned to be able to enjoy them at any time of the year In Murcia it was necessary to carry out this Shadow Plan to guarantee the health of our neighbors and create spaces conditioned and safe "José Guillén highlighted.
Already have this improvement 32 green areas of the municipality, of which 19 are from districts such as Zeneta, Valladolises, Lobosillo, La Raya, La Ñora, El Palmar, Gea and Truyols, Los Garres, Espinardo or Era Alta.
It must be remembered that the new contract for the maintenance and restoration of green areas includes the installation of another 120 shading pergolas.
The Park and Garden Service continues to respond to the requests made by families and neighbors, who demand the extension of the surfaces with shade in outdoor leisure spaces.
To do this, the City combines the most modern covering systems-pergolas and micro-perforated tensile structures that reduce the temperature of the playing area by several degrees-with the natural shade projected by large trees, providing an average of 100m2 of shade in each children's play area.
In addition, each and every one of the new children's play areas that are projected are designed with previous shadow study that guarantees, at least, 50% of space protected from the sun's rays on its entire surface.
