High standards THE municipal cleaning service in Torrox has re‐ ceived the international Silver Broom Award (Pre‐ mio Escoba de Plata) for the town’s cleanliness. This was announced by the mayor of Torrox, Os‐ car Medina, on Monday, May 23. He expressed his satisfaction with “a job well done” and highlight‐ ed “the commitment of this government team to make Torrox one of the
cleanest cities in Spain”. At the beginning of 2022, Torrox fully mod‐ ernised its cleaning ser‐ vice. Not only did it intro‐ duce 40 new energy‐ efficient cleaning vehi‐ cles, but it also became the first municipality in Andalucia to implement Spain’s new Waste Law, which requires the sepa‐ ration of organic waste from other types of waste into different con‐
tainers. At the presentation of the new machinery, Fran‐ cisco Cifuentes, the terri‐ torial delegate in Andalu‐ cia for FCC, the company that holds the concession for the cleaning service in Torrox, stated that it is “the best machinery cur‐ rently available on the market”. The Broom Awards are given to the institutions and organisations that
stand out for their work done to protect the envi‐ ronment in Spain, Mexi‐ co, Chile, Argentina, Pe‐ ru, Portugal and Andorra.
