The mayor, Jose Lopez (MC), announced today that the Ministry has suspended the meeting of the Board of Directors of the company 'Cartagena High Speed' should have been held in tomorrow.
The municipal government, led by Lopez, has been demanding seventeen months the need for this meeting occurs to advance the arrival of high speed to the municipality of Cartagena.
However, this announcement comes to countersign the complaint filed by MC recently about the apparent disinterest central and regional administrations continue to show the situation of the railway infrastructure of Cartagena.
In this vein, the president and spokesman MC, Jesus Gimenez, recalled that "when this meeting was convened in MC express our skepticism about the reality and virtuality of the agreements that the same could be achieved since, a day today, all that is clear is that high speed should reach the station Avenida de America as decision of the local government and residents of the municipality ".
The non-realization of meeting society 'Cartagena High Speed' returning to run out date is passed has caused "disappointment of skepticism and disappointment; that is what provides the central regional administration and to Cartagena."
Gimenez has listed many shortcomings in infrastructure which hinder the progress of the municipality and the region, "we have nearby, do not have a railway communications for passengers to support tourism and bet on our town, or a communications goods do also, "recalling, once again, that the construction of bypass of Beniel would have allowed the arrival of the AVE to the region through Cartagena.
The president of MC has claimed administrations "bet for the city and its region", as in other reasons, Cartagena is "the only city in the region is at the national average in terms of the tourism sector GDP" .
Finally, Jesus Gimenez has indicated that MC endorses the statements made this morning by Jose Lopez in the sense of doubt that this meeting was to take place at some point because "it is clear that convened after the alleged investiture Prime Minister and now no longer can assert that having a functioning government, you can not move forward, "lamenting that, in this new scenario," no longer interested in the social and economic reality of Cartagena has to attend a further delay we'll see if it is weeks, days and wants the mayor or twenty more years as we have been waiting to improve our rail infrastructure ".
