IMPORTANT NOTICE: Ambulance Access to Our Community! Featured

Dear Fellow Residents of Altamira,

Only some nights ago, an Ambulance was called to a house in Calle La Pena to assist a man who had become very ill, with breathing problems (quickly turning blue).

The Ambulance arrival was delayed at the property due to vehicles being badly parked on our narrow streets - it was also delayed in taking the man to hospital by the designated turning area being full of cars and cars parked adjacent to road junctions.

Two ambulances were deployed in order to make sure that this man could be taken to hospital because of the congested roads and his arrival in hospital was further delayed by at least a half an hour. This delay, in other circumstances could have proved fatal. The second Ambulance might have been needed elsewhere and thus further delayed by having to attend this patient.

We would appeal to all of the residents, not to park in designated areas marked “No Parking” or on the yellow lines, to leave sufficient room for emergency vehicles to pass safely and please think of others by using your drive or garage to keep your vehicles off the road, where possible?

Who knows if the next Ambulance or the next Fire Brigade Truck could be for YOU or ONE OF YOUR FAMILY or Your House!!!
