The Crevillent City Council has approved the building of a new shopping centre in the town. The project will be built on a plot of land that is about 12,900 square meters in size and is situated between Paseo de Elche and Calle El Salvador, at the entrance from Elche.
This license was given by Pilar Mas Mas, who is the councillor for works and infrastructure. She said that it was “an important step towards making the shopping centre a reality as soon as possible.” She also said, “The process has been complicated and took longer than planned because we needed permission from the Ministry’s Roads Unit and the Segura Hydrographic Confederation. Their permits arrived at the end of 2024.”
The business group in charge of the project was given a major works license by the Local Government Board on January 30. The project includes building a private parking lot and commercial space. Mas said ‘after the demolition of the old Azabe factory buildings in April 2023, the urban planning certificate was given that accredited the conditions of the plot, which allowed the developers to apply for the works licence’.
The owners and the City Council started talking in August 2023, and the Municipal Technical Office asked for some changes. The licence wasn’t given until it got good reports from the Ministry and the Segura Hydrographic Confederation. This was because the spot is near the N-340 highway, which would affect the area.
The councillor emphasised how important this project was for the town, saying, “This shopping centre will be an economic boost for Crevillent, creating jobs in the process, and will become an alternative entertainment and leisure venue for the people.”
In addition to commercial areas, the City Council wants the complex to have areas for dining, entertainment, and shopping so that it can provide a full range of services to both residents and tourists.
