The City Council renovates playgrounds in Marbella, Nueva Andalucía, and Puerto Banús

The Marbella City Council continues to make progress in its plan to modernize the children's areas of the municipality, with actions that add up to 634 square meters of renovated spaces to improve safety, accessibility, and play experience. The Albatros park in Nueva Andalucía, "has been one of the most significant actions and the last one we have completed, while the United Nations park in Puerto Banús has been completely renovated and work is now continuing in Río Huelo, in the urban core," explained council member Diego López.

In the case of the Albatros children's area, which covers an area of 252 square meters, a four-seat swing with an integration chair has been added, a new continuous and colorful shock-absorbing pavement has been installed, after creating a drainage system that prevents future waterlogging. In United Nations, with 130 square meters, the pavement has been renewed, the games have been restored or replaced, and a color shock absorber has been installed.

In the case of Río Huelo, which also has an area of 252 square meters, work is being done in an area designated for younger children, which will serve as a complement to the adjacent area for children over five years old. The intervention includes the installation of a new multi-game with a greater recreational offer and an inclusive seesaw, in addition to a continuous colored rubber pavement, ensuring compliance with all safety standards.

"In total, these actions represent the comprehensive renovation of 634 square meters of play areas, reinforcing the municipal commitment to the creation of safer, more accessible, and attractive public spaces for families," emphasized the council member, who noted that the 105 children's parks in the municipality are acted upon "almost daily, both in their cleaning and maintenance." Additionally, López announced that the City Council "will continue working on the progressive improvement of children's parks throughout the city, expanding and modernizing facilities to promote a healthy and quality environment for children."

For her part, the councilwoman of Nueva Andalucía, Vanessa Ortiz de Zárate, thanked the department for the work done and stated that "our commitment focuses on the most important heritage we have in Andalucía, which are our families and the little ones. "The primary goal is for them to enjoy and be able to play with guarantees and have fun in spaces that are created for them," she added.
