Episode Details

In tonight's bulletin, presenter Riley brings you the latest news from Torrevieja and across the Alicante province.

We lead with the highly anticipated opening date for the new €61 million Paseo del Mar shopping centre in Torrevieja's port area, which is set to create at least 400 new jobs when it launches next week.

Meanwhile, Torrevieja has been selected as the first pilot city in the Valencian Community to trial a new national drug and addiction prevention scheme focused on local leisure environments.

We also cover the mounting delays facing the regional Vive Plan, where a government price freeze and rising material costs have put the construction of 811 affordable apartments in Torrevieja and further projects across Alicante at risk.

Finally, we look at the police crackdown on human smuggling after a network using small boats as illegal taxis was successfully dismantled.
