This page sets out useful information to help you contact the appropriate authorities in a prompt and accurate manner.

It is important to note that in many urbanisations in Arboleas there are no recognised maps at the present time which makes it difficult to direct emergency vehicles to your property. Although this issue is currently being addressed, in the meantime it is suggested that one of the following three options is employed. 1. Someone wearing a high visibility jacket arranges to meet the vehicle at the nearest point that the vehicle is likely to recognise. 2. Householders have prepared (in Spanish) detailed directions to their property and these can be read out over the telephone. 3. If possible, have your satellite navigation coordinates available, many ambulances now have the facility to use this system to locate your property.
