| Included in the program of activities of the European Mobility Week 2020 | During this outing, the citizen group has focused its attention on the north and west, since from these areas thousands of people from Cartagena travel daily to the center of the city."It is impossible to achieve emission-free mobility in Cartagena, if alternative access routes are not created and public transport is improved.
If we could have better sidewalks, more accessible and more bike lanes that would connect the neighborhoods with the urban center, many citizens They would opt for an alternative mobility ", they comment from the citizen group.In these times, the bicycle is no longer a sports instrument, becoming a vehicle that allows us to maintain distances, while helping to improve our health.
That is why it is necessary to offer safe and segregated routes for both motor vehicles and pedestrians.Along the route, which began in the Plaza de España and which took the cyclists to the Christmas Lighthouse, the participants made numerous stops, to mark the black spots for mobility on the route: lack of bike lanes and steps zebra (Alameda, Paseo, San Antón, Canteras road ...), occupation by motor vehicles of spaces intended for bicycles (Sebastián Feringán's bike lane at the height of the school) lack of sidewalks and bike lanes (Carretera de Canteras , road to the Christmas lighthouse), narrow sidewalks and lack of zebra crossings (Peroniño street) ..."We are very concerned, because to date the City of Cartagena has not convened the Mobility Table, which was one of the activities that the consistory had included when registering for the European Mobility Week.
We are very afraid that at as last year said meeting was delayed, which shows the little interest that our leaders have in improving the safety and health of Cartagena and Cartagena, "they indicate from the group.
