These projects are part of the new decree of the Pla Obert (Open Plan) by the Provincial Council of Valencia, which allocates seven million euros to 45 projects from 35 municipalities and three inter-municipal consortia. The plan, coordinated by vice-president Natàlia Enguix, has now approved 1,228 projects with a global investment of 191 million euros.
Enguix highlighted the increase in project submissions from municipalities, stating that at least one decree is approved monthly with dozens of new actions. The provincial president, Mompó, emphasized that nearly 60% of the Pla Obert has been approved, with hundreds of works underway or completed, and encouraged municipalities to maximize the use of funds to improve infrastructure and services.
