The Teguise City Council held a new Security Board this Thursday to define what the human and technical resources that will be launched in the peak days of the upcoming Caleta de Famara festivities, which will be held from August 22 to 28.
The program of activities in honor of Our Sacred Heart of Mary, designed by the town's Festival Commission, in collaboration with the Teguise City Council, will attract thousands of visitors to Caleta and, for this, municipal technicians and emergency services, Local Police and Civil Guard, are working hard to coordinate all available resources so that the festivities run in the most controlled and respectful way possible with residents and with the natural environment of a protected and sensitive space.
In this sense, there will be police control at the festivals, as well as at the entrances to the town, which can only be accessed by the Soo road, since the main one will be closed between 6 p.m. and 5 a.m. (Friday and Saturday) and from 12 to 5 p.m. (Sunday).
The Government team of Teguise and those responsible for the Security Plan insist that special public transport will be enabled for the weekend, and ask "to use taxis or the special bus service that will leave from Arrecife, with a stop in Villa, where parking areas will also be enabled to avoid saturating the town of Famara, with the consequent effects on the territory and the corresponding penalties for leaving the car in prohibited areas."
