Snippets

Visitors to the Marina and Dalt Vila areas of Ibiza will soon notice the distinct lack of the big rubbish containers on wheels which currently 'litter' the streets.

News that's interesting - but not enough for a full story!

Vamos a la playa.
Ibiza council wants permission to open up an access to the beach from the sa Penya district. This will coincide with other works in progress to 'clean up' the area and the provision of a pedestrian walkway through it.

Untidy Bay.
The mayor of San Antonio has plans to 'tidy up' the unorganised appearance of the town's bay. In summer there are boats moored seemingly everywhere, with some in a semi-abandoned state. The plane is to reorganise the moorings with buoys and floating jetties which will also prevent boats being washed up on the beaches every time there is a high wind.

Bright Sparks.
The airport is having a new electrical system installed at a cost of €3.6 million. This will prevent delays caused when there is a power failure as happened on a couple of occasions last summer.
