The Parks and Gardens Department has started the year with important actions focused on the recovery and maintenance of the green areas of Mijas. One of them has involved the pruning of around twenty ficus trees in Calle Río Darro in Las Lagunas, which will be transplanted in the next few days to the Gran Parque.
Taking advantage of the comprehensive remodelling that is going to be carried out on this road in Las Lagunas, the Department of Parks and Gardens has decided to move these 23 specimens of ficus and albizias to another location which the department considers more suitable: the new Gran Parque. As explained by the councillor of the department, Daniel Gomez Teruel, "in the Gran Parque these trees will serve to provide shade, moreover, there they will not be as destructive as they have been in this area, as the roots of these trees are expansive and affect pipes and drainage, however in the Gran Parque they will be able to spread freely, which will also make them larger and leafier".

Improvement of the ‘Ana Gámez González’ crossing
Another green space that has undergone significant improvement is the Ana Gámez crossroads, close to the Islas Marianas roundabout, where the entire lawn area has been restored, while maintaining the floral decoration. As the councillor said, "the municipality of Mijas has some very beautiful entrances and roundabouts with gardens, and we want to continue in this line, but also focusing on the need to save water, so we are trying to plant flowers and shrubs that need little water and little maintenance".

New areas with xeriscaping
Work has also recently been completed on the beautification of this other spot, located at the entrance to the Avenida de Mijas, where xeriscaping has been applied to help save water.
