The Government of Isabel Díaz Ayuso will take the first steps to build the City of Justice in 2024, with the award of the two lots that make up this infrastructure and which will have an investment of more than 650 million euros over the next few years. five years.
The announcement will be made this Wednesday by the Madrid leader at a press conference to take stock of the 2023 financial year. The City of Justice will be located in the Hortaleza district of the capital and the Community of Madrid will directly manage this initiative that will continue until 2028 and will be developed in four phases, sources from the regional Executive have reported.
The project will occupy 236,000 square meters above ground and another 198,000 below, on a site that has an area of 132,000 square meters. It is made up of 10 buildings, which will be a benchmark in Spain in modernization in terms of accessibility, digitalization and efficiency.
All of this land will bring together the 28 headquarters and 374 bodies that are now scattered throughout Madrid, and which are accessed daily by more than 30,000 people. This will also mean a 50% saving for the public coffers in rents and costs (maintenance, surveillance, cleaning, supplies and other needs).
The General Budgets of the Community of Madrid for 2024, approved last week by the regional Assembly, include an investment of almost 3 million euros to carry out what is known as phase 0 of the City of Justice, which will end this month with the delivery of the construction projects of the two lots to the winning companies, before the work scheduled for 2025 begins.

Last October, the headquarters in Valdemoro began operating, which has unified the eight first instance courts and instruction until now scattered throughout the municipality.
This new headquarters serves nearly 150,000 people from the town itself, in addition to Chinchón, Ciempozuelos, San Martín de la Vega, Titulcia, Torrejón de la Calzada, Torrejón de Velasco and Valdelaguna.
