This meeting was attended by both the spokesman of the MC Cartagena municipal group, José López, and the deputy spokesperson, Isabel García.
It is worth remembering that next Thursday, June 7, a monographic Plenary will be held to set the position of the Corporation on the arrival of high speed to the municipality.
MC defends that the viable and favorable solution for the future of Cartagena goes through the arrival that guarantees the intermodality, the integration of the neighborhoods and the connection of the Port and the ZAL, taking up the proposal of diverting the lines towards the surroundings of Los Camachos and work in parallel to the La Unión highway from El Borricén.
A project to respect the future growth of the municipality
The MC spokesman has started indicating that during the meeting had been about the "well-known draft, already underway, in the face of general knowledge of the participants in the plenary session of June 7. This is a work issued by technicians Municipalities on how the city should develop ".
"Regarding this," the Cartagena leader continued, and beyond "the actions of the parties that must endorse their votes with some things more than the interests of the neighbors, in MC we have clear what we want. arrive to Cartagena, without lastarla or imprison it, that does not block any neighborhood or there are steps at a level, neither in the center nor in the councils, and if it had to travel through a locality that is executed a raised or submerged step. , that in the first instance reach Los Camachos and, from there, deviate both to Escombreras and to Cartagena.The priority is not to constrict eight neighborhoods, something inevitable if the green light is given to the option imposed by the CARM and the Ministry " .
With regard to problems such as the water table, "more accentuated in the city of Murcia," the mayor has meant the assessment of technicians who have claimed that these issues are solved by "engineering".
Study for the decontamination of the roads passing through El Hondón
"That they do not talk to us about costs or problems at the water table or any other type or decontamination because the decontamination project is closer than ever, in fact we are six months away." During my stay in the Government, I asked the UPCT to The first part will be finished and the second part is about to end, you only need to release the money for that chair ", he clarified.
"We are closer than ever", Lopez insisted, who also pointed out that in any case "whether or not the railroad comes, whether or not the AVE, as a Cartagena I want to decontaminate not only the train tracks but all El Hondón, land that must be recovered for use and enjoyment as a zone of expansion and to have a decent entrance to the city and not the lunar landscape we have today. "
PP and PSOE: its initials above the interests of Cartagena
Lopez pointed out that "we believe that there will be enough groups in the municipal plenary to support this measure, which will mean that the mayor and municipal technicians can go to Madrid to tell the Ministry that things have been poorly focused and must be done better. "
Then, the spokesman of MC explained that "any requirement to be made to the ADIF Board of Directors we know what can be done." They change their criteria, as do the politicians, according to the pressure, because they did so in Murcia We hope that criteria are also changed in Cartagena since it is not something that will be immediate, they speak of 2022 or 2023, and there is enough time to correct everything so that we have the best rail and the best facilities to have the best future "
Finally, José López has lamented the inaction of PP and PSOE "because they defend their initials before those of Cartagena and the Campo de Cartagena." The politicians of the majority parties have their own circumstances and that is that if they move they do not come out the photo".
