The enclosed parks and gardens of Málaga remain closed this Wednesday, November 11. The measure affects green spaces with perimeter fencing, including the Jardín Botánico-Histórico La Concepción, as announced by the Ayuntamiento de Málaga. The closure responds to the warnings from the Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (AEMET): an orange one for rain between 12:00 and 23:59 in the Sol and Guadalhorce areas, to which the capital belongs, and a yellow one for wind from 15:00 to 23:59, with gusts that could reach 80 kilometres per hour.

Which spaces remain closed

In the Centro district, entry will not be allowed to the gardens of Hospital Noble, Alfonso XII and San Miguel, nor to the perimeter accesses to the Parque de Málaga. In the Este district, El Morlaco and Alberto Suárez ‘Pipi’ close. In Ciudad Jardín, La Concepción does; in Bailén-Miraflores, the Parque del Norte; in Cruz del Humilladero, San Rafael and Picasso; in Carretera de Cádiz, Huelin, Oeste, María Luisa and Litoral; in Campanillas, the Parque Lineal; and in Teatinos, those of the Laguna de la Barrera, Héroes del Combate and Parque del Cine. The Consistorio plans to activate the Plan Territorial de Emergencia de Protección Civil Local de Málaga from 10:00 this Wednesday.

Reinforcement for homeless people

The Área de Derechos Sociales has launched prevention and care measures for homeless people. The Unidad de Calle, in coordination with Protección Civil, reviewed on Tuesday afternoon the most vulnerable points, such as streams and bridges under channels, to warn of the risk of rain and offer the possibility of accessing a shelter place. Those planning to approach these green spaces should bear in mind that the closure remains in force while the weather warnings are active, until 23:59 this Wednesday.
