Forest path in Òdena with controlled vegetation for fire prevention.

The Òdena City Council has initiated work on its Forest Fire Prevention Plan (PPI), focusing on improving forest tracks and key roads for the municipality's safety.

The work, primarily driven by the Diputació de Barcelona, includes the maintenance and improvement of 11.29 kilometers of strategic forest roads for fire prevention.
Priority sections for this action include the Camí de Can Macià al Bosc Gran per Ca n'Aguilera de la Costa (4.40 km), the Camí de l'Obaga d'Aguilera (2.80 km), the Camí de Puig d'Aguilera (2.71 km), and the Camí de la Morera de Can Macià to the C-37, pk. 72 (1.38 km).
Tasks combine maintaining the track's surface to ensure accessibility with controlling adjacent vegetation. This controlled vegetation strip is crucial for reducing fire spread risk and facilitating access for firefighting vehicles in emergencies.
The project has a total cost of €19,223.10, of which the Diputació de Barcelona is subsidizing 95% (€18,261.95) as part of the municipal forest fire prevention plan.
