Amposta City Council has received bids from three companies for the new street cleaning contract: Romero Polo, Acciona, and FCC. The tender anticipates the new service commencing on September 1, 2026. This new contract represents a 54% increase in resources allocated to cleaning, aiming to adapt the service to the city's current needs.

The new tender places a particular emphasis on reinforcing manual cleaning, increasing the presence of workers on the streets. This decision is based on accumulated experience and the results of pilot tests that have demonstrated greater effectiveness of street-level cleaning in certain areas. However, mechanized services with sweepers, washers, and water cleaning equipment will be maintained.

Another significant novelty is the separation of street cleaning and gardening services, which were previously managed under a single contract. This division will allow for a better adaptation of resources and provisions to the specific needs of each service.

Once the evaluation process of the bids is completed and the contract is awarded, the municipal forecast is that the new successful bidder will begin providing the service from September 1.
