Orihuela, 3 November 2025 — The Department of Tourism has awarded the contract for the replacement and renewal of Orihuela Costa’s urban tourist signage. The upgrades will mainly take place along the N-332 corridor between Mil Palmeras and Punta Prima, as well as nearby roads.
Councillor for the Coast, Manuel Mestre, said clear and consistent signage is essential for any tourist destination: “Good signage helps visitors find their way easily, enhances their experience, and improves road safety.” The project aims to make it easier for tourists to navigate the area and identify key attractions.
The new signs will follow a modern, unified design, featuring anodised aluminium structures with reflective fronts for better visibility in low light. Mounted on recyclable aluminium posts, they will combine durability with minimal environmental impact thanks to an eco-friendly manufacturing process.
The project, awarded to Señalizaciones Villar S.A., has a budget of €193,473.01. Mestre added, “We continue working to make our coastline more comfortable, safe, and attractive for both residents and visitors.”
The initiative is co-funded by Spain’s Ministry of Industry and Tourism through the European Union’s Next Generation EU Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.
