The Governing Board of the Madrid City Council has approved the incorporation of 17 new actions into the South and East Development Plan (SURES), which will mobilize an investment of 13.9 million euros to reduce territorial imbalances.

These new initiatives, announced by the deputy mayor and municipal spokesperson, Inma Sanz, are distributed across four key areas: environmental regeneration (nine projects), culture and sports (three), public space recovery (three), and public education (two).
The aim of these interventions is to improve public spaces, green areas, facilities, sports installations, and school environments in districts such as Latina, Carabanchel, Usera, Villaverde, Puente de Vallecas, Villa de Vallecas, Moratalaz, Vicálvaro, and San Blas-Canillejas.
Since its launch, the SURES Plan has approved 279 actions, of which 226 are already completed, operational, or underway, representing 81% of the total. The City Council allocated 260 million euros to territorial rebalancing policies between 2020 and 2023, and plans to invest another 325 million between 2024 and 2027.
The Environmental Regeneration Board leads the new additions with nine actions and an investment of 7.5 million euros, highlighting the rehabilitation of Vandel and Arroyo Fontarrón parks (Moratalaz) and the improvement of the park on Eduardo Barreiros street (Villaverde).
In the cultural and sports sector, the completion of eight relevant actions was reported, including the new sports pavilion in Las Rosas (San Blas-Canillejas) with 12.7 million euros, the Victoria Prego Library (Carabanchel), and the Music and Dance School of Latina.
The Public Space Recovery Technical Board has approved three new interventions, notably the remodeling of the Alberto Palacios promenade (Villaverde) with two million euros, and accessibility improvements in the Tercio Terol housing colony and the Aluche neighborhood (Latina).
The Public Education Board has greenlit two actions for the climate adaptation of schoolyards at public schools such as El Quijote (Villa de Vallecas) and Javier de Miguel (Puente de Vallecas), jointly exceeding 1.4 million euros.
Other completed projects include the Industrial Factory of Villaverde (10.3 million euros) and the City Council's Care School (4.3 million euros). In mobility, the first phase of the comprehensive renovation of the old town of Carabanchel has been completed, and an urban elevator has been put into operation in Latina.
