				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Ministry of Public Works of the Junta de Andalucia has started to construct a temporary 600 metre concrete walkway between between El Puente and Álora station, the walkway to run parallel to the A-343, in order to improve pedestrian safety as the iron bridge linking the two suburbs was washed away in the floods of last September.<span id="more-29216"></span></p>
<p>The temporary walkway, budgeted at €502,51.00, will run parallel to the A-343.  The old iron bridge, washed away last September when the rio Guadalhorce overflowed, still lies in the riverbed.</p>
<p>Local residents have been requesting a solution to the problem for a long time due to the danger of having to walk via the hard shoulder and will no doubt be pleased with the prompt action.</p>

<p>The detainee, a resident of Canillas de Albaida, was driving through the centre of town in his SUV when he was signalled to stop at a police control. Instead of stopping he tried to evade the police but was eventually intercepted.</p>
<p>Searching the car, the police officers discovered the stash of drugs and €1,000 in cash, thought to be the proceeds of drugs sales. He has been charged wit a crime against the public health.</p>
