<span style='color:#780948'>ARCHIVED</span> - European Mobility Weeks draws to a close in Aguilas with a street festival

Almost 3,000 EU towns and cities, including Murcia's Águilas, marked European Mobility Week 2022 (September 16-22) to raise awareness about new forms of clean mobility, take stock of current transport challenges, and "progress towards more sustainable mobility" through a range of activities and events.

And to round off the informative but fun week, Águilas Town Hall staged a street festival in Calle Conde de Aranda on Saturday September 24 – a day of music, theatre, face-painting, inflatables and more.

"Calle Conde de Aranda has become a benchmark in the municipality in terms of pedestrian mobility, where the objective of pedestrians of all ages taking over the street has been achieved," said the Town Hall in a statement.

The street was pedestrianised last year as part of the town's Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan within the Sustainable and Integrated Urban Development Strategy. The project was 80% co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), through Spain's multi-regional operational programme 2014-2020.
