In the coming months 6 kilometers of rural roads will be conditioned approximately the repair of the Vera, Abades and Perez roads, which are being contracted by the regional government. "

Thus, important works of asphalting, signaling, cleaning of accounts, evacuation of rainfall and public lighting have been carried out, among others.
Finally, Tunisia thanked the regional government "to take into account the needs of lumbrerenses and allow rural areas to have the best infrastructure for adequate access to farms."
