Work focuses on a 21.4‐kilometre section between the Giles district and the Mojacar river‐mouth. The benefits were already plain to see, Crespo declared, pointing to the absence of incidents during the storms and torrential rain of last October and November. “The project was announced in March and today we can already see the results,” she said.
