The Regional Secretary for Equipment and Infrastructure, Pedro Fino, today visited the Madeira Equestrian Association (AHM), in Caminho dos Pretos, Funchal to discuss the proposed renovation works for the centre.
The above work aims to replace the roof of the stable block as age and degradation have made it unstable and leak.
“In accordance with the commitment of the President of the Regional Government, to the Madeira Equestrian Association, we are starting the rehabilitation work of the Funchal Equestrian Centre, an investment of 76 thousand euros and which has an execution period of 30 days,” stressed Pedro Fino, ensuring that “these works aim to ensure better conditions for the horses, employees, riders and visitors to the centre.”
The works consist of the removal and replacement of the existing roof, reinforcement of the wooden support beams of the roof, strengthening and replacing interconnecting wooden separation panels, re-screeing the floors, new lights, wood treatment, painting of iron railings and replacing the bench seating located at the side of the main arena.
