In relation to the information published today by the newspaper La Verdad regarding the bus service in La Palma, and the one published by the newspaper La Opinion about the breach of the motion approved in the Plenary to start up a bus service that will connect the localities of Los Urrutias with Los Nietos and El Algar, the spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, announced that his group is already preparing an initiative to be presented at the next ordinary plenary to demand that the City of Cartagena carry out the necessary steps with the company to restore the service offered by line 24 of Alsa in the conditions in which it had been carried out in La Palma, and the execution of the motion that required the connection of the towns of Los Urrutias, Los Nietos and El Algar.

"In the case of La Palma, what we do not understand is that the City Council has surrendered in negotiations with the company and has allowed the suspension of an essential connection service for the residents of La Palma to be formalized, thus provoking the logical anger of the neighbors, especially that hundred that habitually uses this means of transport, according to data of the neighborhood collectives, to move to an educational center, for sanitary or labor issues ".

"In Citizens we believe that the Government of Cartagena must address the generalized deficit in the collective transport service in a global manner," said Manuel Padin, who says that "we can not get to work only when neighbors explode, a report is required with a detailed, ordered and prioritized analysis of the many needs that exist ";

In this sense, he recalled the case of residents of the Santa Ana residential complex "who only have six buses a day, and are forced to walk along the N-332, with the danger involved, to a stop that is nearby. of a meat company in the area. "

The orange training has also rescued the demand of the neighborhood associations of Molinos Marfagones and cultural groups such as La Magdalena that have criticized the delay for the promised reinforcement of line 6, "and here is not only the frequency of step but of the own route, that finishes in Young Cartagena without continuing by other localities that crosses the RM-332 ".

Manuel Padín has also warned that Isla Plana and La Azohía the situation is even worse "there is only in the morning a bus with departure to Cartagena at seven, who has, for example, appointment with the doctor at eleven is bound to wait three hours".

"In Pozo Estrecho, for example, it is required and so the neighbors have asked for a second bus stop at Bar Bibiano, in the Estación Sector another is needed, not to mention the innumerable requests from Cartagena to the placement of canopies ", claims the orange spokesman for Citizens.

On the other hand, Ciudadanos is still waiting for the claimed social bonds to reduce the use of the bus to members of specific groups, such as the unemployed and students, and to increase the frequency in the lines that go to La Manga, "since the expartido of Government, MC, proposed it in the Plenary and the regional Administration was urged, we do not know anything at all, they have forgotten the supervision of their own political claims, I would not be surprised by the populist movement of López ", Manuel Padín has indicated.

Finally, Ciudadanos recalled that a few months ago he sent his Parliamentary Group in the Regional Assembly, the problem of school transport in La Aljorra.

"There, on many occasions, the kids have had to stay on land for a few days and others have been forced to travel standing inside the bus, on the way from the stop to the institute, with all the risks that this scenario entails. the safety of the students, "said Manuel Padín, who has announced that they will redouble their efforts to ensure that the Community offers an immediate solution to this problem.
