Overview

  • With the 2025 budget still unapproved after Junts and comunes withheld support, council operations continue under extended 2024 appropriations.
  • In a joint press conference, Deputy Mayor Jordi Valls and ERC spokesperson Jordi Castellana announced the €19.7 million fund for proximity projects.
  • The plan directs equal funding to all ten districts to unblock long-delayed local works and sustain PSC-ERC coalition stability.
  • Fifty-eight interventions were selected based on urgent neighborhood demands, including bike lanes, plaza overhauls and public equipment upgrades.
  • Project calendars vary, with some works already underway and others pending executive designs before construction begins.
