there are in the gardens of the municipality of Murcia | The Murcia City Council, through the Department of Urban Development and Administration Modernization led by José Guillén, continues to carry out a constant and controlled review of the more than 700 unique specimens and the nearly 120,000 trees and palm trees that there are in the gardens of the municipality of Murcia. Specifically, this week we reviewed an elm over 13 meters high and 3 meters in diameter, which is located in the Fishermen's Lane in Beniaján. The objective of this thorough review, which has been carried out branch by branch, is to guarantee the safety of the residents of the municipality, in addition to paying special attention to the trees considered as unique or unique so that they grow in perfect condition. These works are being carried out by qualified technicians from the concessionaire company STV / Actúa, specifically, a specialist in pruning of unique trees is in charge of reviewing the specimen to check its condition and prune the branches that are dry.
After this action, prepare a report detailing the guidelines that are necessary for its maintenance. This work has been carried out with a crane truck and using a climbing system that allows access to all parts of the elm, which in no case represents the slightest damage to this monumental tree. "This tree joins the 700 unique specimens that are reviewed and inspected to guarantee the safety of all our neighbors and improve their quality of life.
The green areas are meeting and leisure spaces for all Murcians, as well as the authentic ones lungs of our city, which have to be in perfect condition since they improve the air we breathe and our quality of life "José Guillén highlighted.Trees are an element of life and energy by generating numerous benefits for the environment such as combating climate change, cleaning the air, providing oxygen, cooling streets and cities, and saving water.
The species that predominate within the large-sized woodland are eucalyptus, ficus, platanus, casuarinas, pinus or celtis, among others, distributed both in Murcia and districts. The Deputy Mayor, responsible for the urban development of the city, clarified that, the reviews are constant, they are carried out a minimum of twice a year per copy in the case of large copies, they are complementary to those made when activated the so-called emergency protocol, which for safety limits those spaces where there may be a problem due to the wind, episodes of storms or extreme temperatures. In addition, the green areas of the municipality have also been converted into Smart spaces, such as the ficus of Santo Domingo and Floridablanca, which are monitored in real time, guaranteeing safety for the residents of Murcia. Innovation that improves and cares for the environment Parks and Gardens also improves the care and security of the woodland with atomization technology, which serves to attack more effectively the various pests that can affect large specimens. Another of its advantages is that, thanks to its ability to spray and boost the treatment, it allows to act in places inaccessible due to its height, at the same time that it is carried out in complete safety, both for the citizen and for the technicians themselves. This system also minimizes the exposure of the operators to the phytosanitary products by the very operation of the machinery, which optimizes its handling when used by remote control.
José Guillén has pointed out that "this is yet another proof of the effort to innovate to continue improving our quality of life through the care and maintenance of green areas, while reducing plant protection products and helping to care for the environment."
