  "account": "Orihuela has completed a €22,000 lighting upgrade along a stretch of the CV-923 road between Hurchillo and Bigastro, improving safety and visibility for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. This upgrade came after recent works expanded the road, which required more powerful lighting to adequately illuminate the route. The project involved installing ten new 80-watt LED lighting columns, while also updating existing lights. The improved system now uses LED technology, which should provide clearer illumination during nighttime hours. Additionally, the parking area adjacent to Hurchillo’s public school received new floodlights, making it easier to navigate for residents and school visitors after dark. Infrastructure councillor Victor Valverde noted residents' satisfaction with the improvements, which not only brighten up the road but also enhance safety for everyone using this section of the CV-923.",
