As Pontes (A Coruña), 2 November 2026
The Xunta’s delegate in Ferrol, Martina Aneiros, visited the municipality of As Pontes this morning to inspect the results of improvement works carried out at the Penapurreira and Os Airíos industrial estates with support from the Galician Government.
As Pontes Council is among the local authorities within the Territorial Delegation’s area to have received grants from the Regional Ministry for Economy and Industry to develop and improve infrastructure at their business parks. Specifically, it received two grants totalling more than €120,000: one to resurface Road 2 and provide road markings at the Os Airíos industrial estate, and another to improve road markings at the Penapurreira business park.
These grants, available to local authorities, have a total budget of €3.45 million this year. They cover up to 80% of eligible investment, capped at €120,000 for individual applications and €138,000 for joint applications.
Eligible activities under the scheme include improvements to street lighting, wastewater treatment plants, waste management, access roads and internal roads within business parks, and centralised gas or hydrogen supply services. New this year, the grants can also be used to improve infrastructure and public spaces within business parks to help them blend into the surrounding landscape.
