Works of Es Martell building (Ibiza Port) will begin next Monday, January 25th. This has been confirmed by Mr. Joan Gual de Torrella, President of Balearic Islands’ Port Authority (APB) after a meeting in Palma with Mr. Francisco Casilla, General Manager of Isolux Corsán, the awarded construction company. “It is a large and powerful company despite of cash shortages, small “treasure tensions” this big companies always sort out”, assured Gual. “General Manager of Isolux Corsán has met with us and reassured us regarding the economical situation they are facing. Works will begin next Monday”. Works of this very new building will be done simultaneously with the demolition of the disused and old maritime station, with a volume and design incompatible with the new seafront, willing to integrate both port and the city for the enjoyment of all residents and tourists, being compatible with port uses. This works are added to other works APB is performing by agreement with Vila council, such as a terminal to substitute the current Botafoc canopy, a comfortable terminal for goods and passengers’ traffic to Formentera and the union of different port areas with a promenade. “The aim is to have an image of the whole port in four or five years. it will be really important for Ibiza”, underlined Gual.
