The roads in Camposol are very flooded, with Avenida Covachos being particularly bad.
I saw an inspection of the bridge this morning and a police presence on Covachos,, apparently they have opened sluice gates and put water down the rambla, hopefully they won't close the bridge, otherwise disaster for us across the bridge.

Hi
Yes I’ve seen photos and drone footage the rambla is high and more worryingly it’s flowing fast hopefully there won’t be any damage to the structure of the bridge as I would imagine there is more rain water coming down from the mountains but the forecast looks better in the coming days.

The dip between c and d is very bad. You can't see the pot holes due to the amount of water. Drive in the middle and very slow. Never seen so much water raging in the rambla. If you have key holders ask them to check on your properties. I will be doing so once the rain stop to give them piece of mind. We know many that their underbuilds conserversatory are flooded and water coming down walls ceilings and chimneys

Yes water can cause so many problems here.
Underbuilds are there to take the water, and hopefully people have installed pumps.
Many , Many underbuilds built in will now see that it was a bad idea, as if the water cannot escape, it will start to soak into the walls, and gradually spread into the villa above.
This brings damp and mould, not easy to get rid of.
It is part of Spain, and will happen on many occasions each year.
A gotta fria will bring many more problems as we have seen in the past.
Sadly Spain does not have a proper drainage systems, so it flows all over.
