The Councilor for Development, Roque Ortiz, held this morning a meeting with representatives of the 23 communities of neighbors adjoining the site of San Esteban to inform them of the works of pedestrian conditioning around the site of San Esteban.
The awarding of the project will be approved by the Governing Board next Friday, as well as the drafting of the Master Plan of the San Esteban Joint and the renewal of conservation and protection measures for archaeological remains whose proposals have been awarded today Resolved in Recruitment Table.
Ortiz has confirmed to the neighbors that the beginning of the works of pedestrian conditioning and protection of the deposit will begin in the next weeks which will allow to open the archeological space to the Murcia before the next summer.
The councilor explained to the neighbors that "we will reconcile the development of the different projects with their needs by generating parking lots for residents, as they requested us. The owners have to be the first beneficiaries of the works and will be permanently informed of the progress of the works ".
The works that will allow the pedestrian conditioning of the surroundings of the San Esteban deposit will begin with the removal of existing screens today so that, from the outset, pedestrians can perceive a wide view of the area.
Subsequently will proceed to the construction of 900 square meters of new sidewalks of 2, 20 meters wide in the street Portico of San Antonio and Jeronimo de Roda and the rehabilitation and opening of another 1,600 square meters of pedestrian zones in the perimeter of the Palace .
This way, a continuation of the existing sidewalk will be executed in the Callejón Burruezo until the intersection with the street Jerónimo de Roda, with the same characteristics, type of pavements and tonalities that exist in the recently reformed section of the Callejón, included between the Church of San Miguel and the archaeological site of San Esteban.
Finally a steel railing of 1.10 meters will be installed, set back 1 meter from the head of slope of the excavation, in a way that allows the visibility of the deposit, thus opening the space to anyone who crosses the area.
The performance in the environment is complemented by a comprehensive renovation of the lighting system, which will provide greater power and, at the same time, lower consumption than the current.
Specifically, the actions foreseen in the lighting of the perimeter of the deposit consist of:
- In the surrounding streets, between Acisclo Díaz and Burruezo, the installation of public lighting will be maintained, changing in the luminaires the ignition equipment and the existing lamp by another one of Metal Halide, in order to unify the lighting systems and improve The chromatic reproduction index.
- In the pedestrian zone located between the site and the Palacio de San Esteban will repair and paint the existing columns of 4 meters, replacing existing luminaires with other 47 W LEDs.
- In line with the railing that is to be installed a LED strip embedded in the floor to a depth of 6 cm and with a width of 2.5 cm, RGB type (programmable color), 24 V and 12 W per meter.
The electric power at the end of the performance will be 11,000 w (compared to the current, 7,380 w), with an annual energy consumption of just over 29,000 kwh, which is a reduction of 6.76% over current consumption .
In the area between Acisclo Díaz and Portillo de San Antonio streets, a special area will be installed in which different informative elements will be installed, which will be renewed and thanks to which Murcia will be able to know on the spot the evolution of the works.
Councilor for Development, Roque Ortiz, explained that "the award of the renewal of conservation measures and protection for archaeological remains will allow both projects to be carried out simultaneously".
The works, in which the Department of Development will invest 172,785 euros, will be made by the company Hydraulics and Fraguados Oyco
