Years later this concession, along with the CADIZ and ALCALA DE
LOS GAZULES concession, was transferred to MRS. ASUNCION COMES
MERINO, who continued with the company throughout the years in
view of the increase in this companys activity in the passenger
road transport sector, duly constituting the public limited

1971, transferring the totality of administrative concessions
and currently representing the unification concession num. 259,
covering diverse passenger road transport services, that is to
