The archaeological work at the old Tiro Janer industrial estate in San Fernando is now in its final stages and the remains found at the site are currently being transferred for conservation in the Free Trade Zone, waiting for them to be displayed in the location decided to be the most appropriate.
Once the work of transferring the archaeological material is completed, the Consortium will put out to tender the urbanization work, which is expected to take place before summer.
The archaeological excavation and cataloging of the remains found in the old island barracks has been extremely laborious. In these works, eight ovens and three groups of amphorae and up to 45 burials have been found, initially dated between the 1st and 3rd centuries BC. Zona Franca purchased the old Janer Shooting Range from the Ministry of Defense in 2013 and since then the Consortium has carried out intense work that began with the demolition of the old facilities. Subsequently, the important archaeological finds and the meticulous work by the experts slowed down the process.
The Consortium anticipates that it will be able to put out to tender the urbanization work in the coming weeks to be able to carry out as quickly as possible the commercial and business park project with a maximum construction of approximately 60,000 square meters, for which contacts have already been made with companies. interested in settling in this magnificently located enclave.
