Vera’s Guardia Civil officers, changing in garages for six years, finally see new barracks move forward

Guardia Civil officers in the town of Vera have been without proper accommodation for over six years, forced to use garages for changing and lacking showers. The old barracks, built in 1960, were evacuated after structural issues emerged due to weak foundations. Vera's mayor and the Guardia Civil's economic department have now set a tender out for the project to demolish the old building and construct a new one.

The tender, with a base budget of €183,509.98, includes a land survey, geotechnical study, health and safety analysis, and waste disposal plan. Bids are due by November 5, with a three-month construction period planned thereafter. The project, initially proposed in April 2025, is now part of Spain's 2025-2029 security infrastructure plan.

Vera's residents, with a population exceeding 20,000, hope the new barracks will improve both public service and living conditions for both locals and tourists.
