EXTRA security measures – including the placing of bollards and planters – have been taken to protect Costa promenades and pedestrian streets from potential terrrorist attacks.
In the light of what happened in Barcelona and Cambrils last week, local councils have acted promptly to reduce the risk in these areas.
Benidorm was one of the first councils to react by placing extra planters and bollards to block access to promenades and main shopping areas such as Calle Gambo.
Torrevieja, Santa Pola, Altea, Alfaz del Pi, Dénia and other towns have taken similar action.
