The mayor César Urán (National Party) in the session of the Departmental Board of 12 requested “the Departmental Executive, and through him the Ministry of Transportation and Public Works (MTOP), the repair, through widening and better signage, of the route No. 97, from Carmelo by route No. 21, to its junction with route No. 12 towards Nueva Palmira”.
The words of the palmirense were elevated to the MTOP.
Punta Gorda breakwaters
Once again, out of many, he reiterated the request to the MTOP to “carry out a study of the existing breakwaters in the Punta Gorda resort of Nueva Palmira.”
The existing breakwaters are completely dismantled and the beach is undermined, there is no sand left, but there are no actions to improve it, despite the fact that it is in a place of great historical value: the place where Juan Díaz de Solis died, the place where Charles Darwin arrived on creator of the theory of evolution; the conjunction of the rivers De la Plata, Uruguay and Paraná; and battery where Rivera fought against the Portuguese.
