With this amount you can completely dig the southeast of the monument, the best preserved, incorporating the remains of the monument to the routes in an effective way and ending with the image of neglect and abandonment of the Roman ruins and the area in general

The Municipal Group of United Left-Greens has again asked for the umpteenth time, that a definitive solution to the excavation and enhancement of the Roman amphitheater is given, especially when the cost of the work is an easily affordable amount for the coffers municipal or regional.

Thus, the formation of the left, which over the legislature has made several amendments to initiatives and annual budgets to give such solution has been systematically rejected by the PP government team has filed a motion by Councilman Jaime Cayetano, in this sense to be discussed at the next plenary session.

IU-Greens is aware that the amphitheater can, and should, become one of the major tourist and heritage attractions of Cartagena, taking it out of neglect that their jobs are digging and recovering it for a real tourist use and also to avoid sorry picture featuring their remains abandoned and the bullring for all who enter the place, either by going to university departments or be fooled by the brochures that offer them the chance to visit something that is not real.

Therefore, and knowing that a figure of between 250,000 and 300,000 euros could dig the southeast of the monument (the next to the old Naval Hospital, rise of Dr. Fleming and final part of the street Gisbert and that is where the remains are best preserved, being the lower grandstand tickets to the memorial and agencies that still have their roofs after almost 2,000 years of existence), incorporating an effective way to tourism, the formation of the left has called for such amount is subtracted from an existing item in the budgets of the Autonomous Region for the coming year.

Specifically, such a departure, multi -with an amount a million euros in 2015 and another in 2016, is intended for the greenway Cartagena, Totana.

Because of this multiannual IU-Greens called for in his motion requesting the autonomous region, and more specifically to the Ministry of Tourism which is the target of the game, the amount subtracted to the amphitheater, which stands at 300,000 euros it is incorporated into the next year to complete the work also of that greenway.

Not forgetting also provide amounts in subsequent years to finish making the large investment continued, culminating excavation, museological and value.

The power and having the best preserved area of ​​the amphitheater on tourist itineraries, if accepted the initiative of IU-Greens also allow him an application to large autopsy of former Navy Hospital, eighteenth century building was restored and opened the public a few years ago and was later closed for lack of visitors, perhaps because it was not assimilated the price charged for entry to the offer that was made.
