Recebe Trains Begin Work Today in Jandía and Antigua

One of the receive trucks has started today from the Morro Jable cemetery and will continue until the road network of La Punta de Jandía is completed.

The receive trucks of the Cabildo of Fuerteventura, operating through the Cabildo’s Works and Machinery Service, have begun today the rehabilitation of the dirt roads in La Punta de Jandía and Antigua. This is a periodic operation, coordinated with the municipalities of Pájara and Antigua, that follows the work carried out on the coastal road linking Corralejo and El Cotillo, also coordinated with the municipality of La Oliva.

Lola García, president of the Cabildo, highlighted the work carried out by the Cabildo’s receive trucks to improve and maintain the island’s roads in optimal condition throughout the year.

Blas Acosta, Councillor for Works and Machinery, explained:

“It is essential to maintain vehicular communications in the interior of the island, since a large part of its road network is unpaved and connects urban points with other tourist‑interest locations.”

“The condition of the dirt tracks is a key element to safeguard in order to improve residents’ quality of life and guarantee the best experience for visitors.”

The same receive truck that started from the Morro Jable cemetery is advancing toward completing the La Punta de Jandía road network. Simultaneously, crews and machinery from the receive truck assigned to this period are working on the dirt roads of the municipality of Antigua.

The Works and Machinery Service operates continuously, with its receive trucks rotating across the island in an endless cycle. Thanks to this system, the extensive network of island dirt roads remains in optimal driving condition.

These trucks periodically re‑grade the surface of various dirt tracks to remove irregularities caused by regular vehicle traffic and natural elements such as rain and wind.

In this context, coordination between local administrations and the Cabildo, along with its public resources, is a key factor in planning the Works and Machinery Service. The combined effort multiplies the impact of these actions.
