The Socialist Municipal Group of Benicarló has expressed its concern over potential issues arising from recent resurfacing works in the town's historic center. As indicated, after speaking with residents in the area, concerns related to the execution of these works have been detected.

The socialists point out that in streets such as Santa Bàrbara, Santa Càndida, or Santa Isabel, among others, the decision was made to apply a new layer of asphalt over the existing surface without removing it beforehand. This practice could have altered the slopes and levels of the roadway, potentially leading to complications.

Several residents have voiced their apprehension about the possibility that this action could affect the drainage system. Specifically, they suggest that the sewer grates might have become partially covered, which would hinder water evacuation during periods of intense rainfall.

Given this situation, the socialist group has requested a comprehensive review of the drainage system in the affected streets. The objective is to evaluate the functioning of the infrastructure after the completed works and ensure proper water management.

Furthermore, they have highlighted the need to strengthen planning and technical oversight in these types of operations. They consider it crucial, especially in areas of the historic old town, where urban conditions may require more specific and detailed solutions to prevent future problems.
