The residents of La Mata have denounced the poor condition of the road Calle Del Mar, which leads to the main roundabout for the Torrevieja suburb. They claim the road is full of potholes of up to 10 centimetres deep and has caused traffic incidents, although fortunately none of them serious.
Neighbours claim that several complaints addressed to the Department of Works and Services have been registered at the town hall, but to date they have not received an answer nor have any solutions been offered to this on-going problem.
