The Mijas Coastal Path, as it passes through El Bombo beach, will undergo a slight change to its route following the reorganisation of street furniture and the relocation of a hospitality business that stood at this point. The work, carried out by municipal staff, will cover a stretch of approximately 70 metres. As the councillor for Beaches, Daniel Gómez Teruel (PP), explained on Tuesday, work began on Monday 13th of April with the removal of the walkway which, until now, ran in a semicircle, “skirting an establishment, and as soon as it was demolished, we set to work to lay out the section as it should be, in a straight line from the bridge. This makes it easier for pedestrians to pass through and, furthermore, gains a few metres of beach for the enjoyment of users”.

 

This project, the councillor noted, is in addition to work starting shortly in the neighbouring Las Mimosas area, “where we will install around six metres of walkway on piles and an additional handrail to provide greater safety and stability to this point, which was affected during the recent storms”.

The work, Gómez Teruel continued, will be carried out under an emergency contract, which also includes improvements at two other points along the Coastal Path, near Rocas del Mar and El Océano. The Coastal Authority (Demarcación de Costas), for its part, has already completed sand replenishment along the Mijas coastline, the councillor noted, “although we are still here with our tractors profiling the entire coast and, weather permitting, everything will be finished in May, so we will soon be able to enjoy our beaches and our Coastal Path in perfect condition”, he concluded.
