One of the most serious examples is located on Avinguda Martí Pujol, near the Quinta Elvira area, where the disappearance of several tiles has left a significant hole. This issue is exacerbated at night due to recent public lighting outages that have left the stretch completely dark in recent weeks.
Those affected regret the negligence of the City Council, as they claim to have repeatedly reported the incident to both the Ajuntament de Badalona and the Guàrdia Urbana. Despite being a minor repair, residents demand urgent action to ensure public safety.
