It is a plan that guarantees the conservation of our town and at the same time allows local companies to continue working in a sustainable manner. To approve this plan, we have also taken into account the opinion of our residents by studying their views, and meeting with property owners, etc. In addition, although they may not be particularly visible or spectacular, we have carried out a large number of public works which we like to call “Small Urbanism”; works that make daily life easier and more pleasant for everyone, and which makes living in Xàbia continue to be such a pleasure. For example, all the new asphalted roads in the three urban centres and in the urbanizations, the repair of pavements, streetlight improvements, cleaning, repair of streets and avenues ... to this list will shortly be added the reconstruction of the Triana bridge to improve safety on this important link between the Port, Montañar and the Arenal. But without any doubt, the most important thing which we have achieved is for yet another year, to remain united as a community and to demonstrate that the best heritage of Xàbia is its people. In 2017 we had to suffer together and face serious personal tragedies such as the accident that cost the lives of three residents of this town and seriously injured two others.
