During the first days of last March, a few days after leaving his responsibilities in the Autonomous Government, Noelia Arroyo was accompanied by the then general director of Roads of the CARM, Francisco José González, to promise Torreciega residents a alleged regional investment of more than 150,000 euros for "the settlement of the sign on the bridge, eliminating the two small and deteriorated sidewalks to gain more space for the pedestrian with a large sidewalk that will facilitate transit for neighbors, connection with the city and increase security. "
At that meeting, the now Vice Mayor, accompanied by the current Councilor for Decentralization and Citizen Participation, Diego Ortega, pledged with the neighbors that the bidding process, by the regional administration, would begin within two weeks.
Almost ten months later, this promise has become a new lie of Arroyo to the neighbors.
In line with this situation, the spokesman of the municipal group MC Cartagena, José López, has lamented that the Ministry of Development "has canceled the award of the reform of the Torreciega bridge."
An "essential" action, López stressed, to "guarantee the safety of pedestrians and that Noelia Arroyo sold to neighborhood residents as imminent in March."
Then, he has continued with the chronology of the events, since in June 2019 "they announced that work was beginning, while in November we discovered that they were lying, because they have canceled the award and the work will not be done, they say that due to the effects of the DANA ".
Later, he recalled that "if Castejón diverted the 150,000 euros that MC introduced in the 2018 budget to adapt the old bridge for pedestrian access to the neighborhood, the new deception of Arroyo and Castejón affects the punishment."
Choking a neighborhood compromising the future
López has continued his argument addressing the situation in which Torreciega is.
"They suffocate a neighborhood isolated by its railroad project, which breathes pollution from Zincsa and El Hondón and, whose neighbors, if they survive these aggressions, will have to continue to play their lives to travel a bridge because there are no more elections.
The cartagenerista leader has concluded by reviewing that "what happens in Torreciega is another step in the strategy of the PP to strangle the growth and progress of Cartagena, a plan in which Arroyo is executioner, the fugitives, instrument, and Padín, fool Useful".
"In the next plenary session we will promote this action, and we will put 'La Trinca' in front of the mirror, once again", José López has finished.
