As a promising campaign, Enrique Maía has announced that within a few days of achieving the mayor of Pamplona will change the name to the main avenue of the city. This is indicated by a statement from the City Council of Pamplona explaining that as soon as the administrative formalities are completed, the name of the avenue will be changed. The decision was taken by Maia, who transferred it to the Board of Spokesmen of the Council this Tuesday.

On 29 April, the name of the avenue was replaced by that of Catherine de Foix. The current City Hall, however, has decided to rename the avenue with the name of Spanish Army. As indicated in the note, the road to the north of the Plaza de los Jardines del Reino de Navarra and the Archivo de Navarra will be called Katalina de Foix.
