The Councillor of Culture, Education, Youth and Sports has attended the act of reconsideration of the works.

The Councillor for Culture, Education, Youth and Sports of the Consell Insular de Menorca, Joan Pons Torres, and the island’s Director of Youth and Sports, Rafel Quintana, attended the ceremony to stake out and begin work on the new athletics track complex in Maó on Monday, 16 September.

This comprehensive renovation project will include the improvement of the athletics tracks and the rugby field, as well as the new construction of the stands and four storerooms. Specifically, the athletics track will have six lanes and an additional perimeter training lane. As for the stands, they will be made of concrete and will include spaces for people with reduced mobility.

Work begins on the new athletics track complex in Maó

The Consell Insular de Menorca will provide 1.5 million euros to finance the project, and the works are scheduled to take four months to complete.

We promised that sports facilities would be a priority for the current government team, and we have kept our word. One year later, work has begun on the complete refurbishment of the Maó athletics track, so that Menorcan athletes and sportsmen and women can train and compete in good conditions. Finally, I would also like to thank La Salle de Maó for their willingness to collaborate with the athletics entities so that they can continue their ordinary activities during the works’, concluded the councillor.
