110 agents of the Local Police and more than 60 firefighters, prepared to intervene in anticipation of heavy rains (27/01/2018)

The City Council has prepared a special device at the notice of the State Meteorological Agency of adverse weather events.

Thus, 110 agents of the Local Police are alerted to activate the flood plan and act minimizing the possible effects if heavy rains occur.

In addition to the regular weekend service, there will be 80 agents to deal with possible incidents that could cause the rains from tomorrow, accounting for a total of 110 police officers.

The agents will establish different control points although they will pay special attention to Espinardo, Beniaján, La Alberca and Sangonera la Verde because these are the districts most affected when it rains.

To this will be added 25 firefighters that will reinforce the 37 expected in the usual checkpoint, thus reaching a total of 62 firefighters who will serve Sunday morning if necessary.

They will also be part of this personal device of the services of Cleaning, Civil Protection, Parks and Gardens, Aguas de Murcia, Traffic and Industrial Services that will be added to the usual maintenance brigades if necessary.

What is intended with this plan is to intervene as quickly as possible and respond immediately to the requirements of the residents of the municipality to minimize the effects of possible heavy rains, establishing priority actions.

The Local Police will be in charge of coordinating the entire operative that has to act when a warning bulletin is received for adverse meteorological phenomenon from the State Meteorological Agency.

In addition, the Local Police deploy their troops in urban areas and districts to take the necessary measures to regulate and cut traffic, using fences and police tape.

Likewise, it is controlled that there are no incidents that endanger people and vehicles.

On the other hand, the Floridablanca garden will remain closed while the warning is maintained in order to guarantee the safety of pedestrians.

On the V Murcia Marathon, scheduled for tomorrow and Sunday in which more than 1,400 runners are registered, the organizers have indicated that it will only be canceled "if the rains are intense and prevent the normal circulation of the participants".
