"The measurement with sound level meters is something that technically certifies the noises that the neighbors support but it is only necessary to spend a Friday at 1 am in certain areas of the city center to verify that measures have to be taken to avoid this situation and guarantee the rest of the neighbors, "said the mayor.

"The hospitality industry will always have our support because it is essential in our municipality because it generates employment, it is a tourist attraction and is part of the way of life of Murcia, so we will adopt measures to promote the orderly growth of the sector" , Navarro has finished.
