THE Guipuscoa Avenue will renature its section between Santa Lucía and Santos A. Ochandátegui streets with a tree path with which will gain green surface and with which the image of an area dominated by urbanization will be softened.
The Local Government Council this week approved the assignment of work to the company Obras y Servicios Tex SL for an amount of 228,465.15 euros, linked to the framework agreement for the rehabilitation works of public spaces.
As reported by the municipal council, the current state of the tree-lined alignments of Gipuzkoa Avenue It’s decadent. The double layout projected in the original urbanization has not flourished, mainly due to the lack of space and adequate conditions for the development of tree roots.
THE tree replacement in the original pits, he added, is not an effective solution, but rather “a cost ineffective with no technical or environmental justification.”
Apart from the section started in 2021, in front of the Buztingune Community Center, in which nine stations have been set up on a newly executed shaft railthe rest of the positions are empty or in decline. Given the result of these new positions, the Pamplona City Council has decided to continue the action throughout the block and even extend it to the Buztintxuri health center block.
Work is expected to begin next week and will end at the end of the year. A continuous avenue of trees will be generated along the two blocks, on the sidewalk adjacent to the direction of traffic towards the city center, with 1.74 meters wide and 1.28 meters deep and with lower drainage of 0.30 meters. In each tree pit, a specimen of Tilia Tormentosa will be planted.
The forest alley will be filled with structural soil composed of 65% office ballast and 35% topsoil. In areas where the existence of a tree pit is expected, an anti-root layer of twelve centimeters thick, also ofphitic, will be installed on top of the previous mixture, supplemented by a filling of ten centimeters of padding in drink.
In the rest of the space, a layer of paving composed of concrete and porous pavers will be installed to Promote the permeability of rainwater in the tree-lined path. In general, between all layers, a layer of separator geotextile will be placed.
