In line with other Costa del Sol towns, Marbella has decided to stop paying for lighting along the A-7

 

In line with other Costa del Sol towns, Marbella has decided to stop paying for lighting along the A-7, claiming that national highways should be paid for by the central government. From December 1st, only bills for the electricity needed for the stretch between Puerto Banús and Guadalmina are still being met by the corporation, the explanation being that this road runs through a town, San Pedro, and also that it would be dangerous to leave it unlit in view of the roadworks taking place. The tunnel on the AP-7 where the toll road and the Puerto Banús road diverge also still has lights, as the company holding the toll road concession has agreed to put the bills in its name. With this, the Town Hall will save a total of 350,000 euros a year.
