Over the next years, the diputacions of Castellón and Teruel will reinforce their cooperation to go hand in hand on infrastructures and projects which are “common, with no frontiers and which are key to rationalise the public resources and improve the quality of life for our residents”. This is what José Martí, president of the Castellón Diputación, and Manuel Rando, of the Teruel Diputación, brought to their visit to the roads uniting both provinces through the Maestrazgo.
The two leaders, accompanied by the provincial deputies, Santi Pérez for Rural Development in Castellón, and María Ariño for Territorial Development in Teruel, visited the state of the work on the road from La Mata to Olocau del Rey, the CV-120. The work, with a budget awarded of 1,781,737.40 euros, has been carried out along a route of approximately 4.5 kilometres.
The project includes improving the links to the Teruel towns of Mirambel and La Cuba, which are already open to traffic but which will be ended in a few weeks. The two presidents were accompanied on the visit by the mayoresses and mayors of Olocau, La Mata, Mirambel, La Cuba, Herbers and Tronchón.
José Martí emphasised the event as showing “the excellent relation of two reconciled neighbours, which share historic areas like the Maestrazgo”. On the CV-120, he stressed “the importance of above all having good communications involved for the quality of life of our towns and for tourism in the area”. In his judgement, “uniting and communicating is essential for inland Castellón and for Teruel along this road, facing up to the demographic challenge”.
For his part, Manuel Rando thanked the Castellón Diputación “for the important investment in a strategic area for inland tourism in Castellón and Teruel, in one of the most beautiful areas of Spain”. For the president of Teruel Diputación “when interinstitutional relations work, things work better and resources are used well”. On this, Rando reminded that “steps have already been taken between both provinces so that there are no frontiers in educational and assistance matters”, so that he considers that the same path must be followed “because snow and fires know no provincial limits”.
Cami la Canà
On the other hand, José Martí and Santi Pérez took advantage of the occasion to visit the work on the road from Villores to Luco de Bordón, where they were accompanied by municipal representatives from the Castellón area. The president of the Diputación and the provincial deputy for Rural Development also visited the works carried out on the Camí la Canà, where 150,000 euros have been invested to improve the safety on a road which runs through the three places and which is used a lot by drivers from the towns surrounding the Bergantes and Cantavieja rivers.
The president of Castellón Diputación, who was accompanied by municipal representatives from Morella, Castellfort and Cinctorres, spoke of a “historic demand from the councils in the area which had finally seen the light and which will doubtless improve the day to day life of the residents of the three municipalities and of the whole region”.
