The Consorci de Residus del Maresme is arranging the 345 metre stretch between the watercourse and the waste treatment plant in Mataró

A new tree-lined promenade by the Argentona Riera

The space between the facilities of the waste treatment plant in Mataró and the Argentona riera (watercourse), around 345 metre, is being transformed into a 5 metres wide tree-lined promenade and a breakwater to protect this side of the riera. The works, carried out by the Consorci per al Tractament de Residus Sòlids Urbans del Maresme, will provide a new leisure area for the citizens. This action fulfills the obligation of the Consorci as one of the owners of the plots by the Argentona watercourse. 

Energy-efficient lighting 

Like the Consorci de Residus has done when enlarging the Centre Integral de Valorització de Residus del Maresme, the renovations of the riera will apply the most energy efficient technologies. Specifically, on this promenade stretch under construction, the lighting will comply with all the requirements of energy efficiency. In addition, several benches will be installed all along the new promenade. The works are subsidised by the Diputació de Barcelona, within the frame of the Pla de concertació Xarxa de Barcelona Municipis de Qualitat 2008-2011 programme.
