Mercadets return to Torrecremada
As a novelty, in the extension decree signed yesterday by the mayor, it is considered necessary to restart the activity of the non-sedentary sales markets that are held in Torrecremada, he feels it necessary that this start be carried out gradually.
For this reason, and in order to avoid crowds of people, guarantee better and adequate control of access in an area with sufficient activity and comply with health regulations, it is established that the Monday market will resume on February 1, in the regular hours and with a 50% reduction in the stops usually authorized, alternating vendors every Monday until the epidemiological situation improves.
In the same conditions, the Friday trail will be resumed, which will be installed again on February 5, at the usual time and with a 50% reduction in the usually authorized stops, alternating the vendors each Friday.
Following the regional regulations on health, different measures will be adopted in both markets of the Torrecremada esplanade. The spaces set up for the celebration will be delimited with construction tapes, fences or any other means that allow the limits of the space to be clearly marked, favoring the delimitation of the influx of customers and ensuring the allowed capacity. A different use may be established for entry and exit. There will also be requirements for distance between stops in order to maintain the safety distance between workers, customers and pedestrians, who will use the mask at all times. Once the sales activity is finished and all the stops have been collected, the floor and surfaces of the entire premises where the market has been developed will be cleaned and disinfected, as well as the entrances and exit areas.
