Porto de Mós approves €10 million sewage and water network works tender

Porto de Mós council has unanimously approved a public tender for works worth around €10 million. They cover new sewage networks in Chão Pardo, Casais Garridos and Andaínho, along with upgrades to the water supply networks there, plus sewerage in the Pedreiras area, including Rua da Fonte and Rua do Casal da Luísa. Road paving will go to a separate tender. Mayor Jorge Vala says the works are essential for the municipality's sustainability and for meeting its environmental obligations. The council wants construction to begin in the first months of next year, though the Chão Pardo works must go to an international tender advertised in the EU's Official Journal, which will add delay.
