The patience of the neighbors, in the limit

For its part, the president of the neighborhood association, Luis Miguel Saura, also denounced the current state of parking.
"They are in an unfortunate state, without the corresponding indications where parking is prohibited, neither access nor exit, leading to rows of cars obstructing the passage in the access area to the beach.
The fact that there are no such indications of road safety, causes that the local police can not apply the corresponding penalties for infractions ".
The President regrets that much of the beach in El Portús remains closed due to lack of work to adapt the area.
"The fences that protect the beach, are open, totally oxidized, have in many cases stolen some of them for scrap, but people continue to enter, thus exposing themselves to the danger of detachment from the mountain."
The spokesman for the Orange Training, has witnessed in his visit, how various groups of people were bathing in the closed area of ​​the beach, both children and adults
"We see that this is not progressing, we have given a vote of confidence to the local administration for a long time, but we see that time passes and it is already three years of long wait," said Saura ..
