Puerto del Rosario's La Matilla and CEIP teachers' block projects now each count on a firm

The former teachers' homes at the CEIP Puerto del Rosario are to be demolished and a company is already in place. The town council chose URCOTEX INMOBILIARIA to demolish the building of the former teachers' homes at the CEIP, a state infant and primary school. The works were tendered at 186,654.90 euros before VAT. This week they reached the award, the step in which the public body chooses the company.
