For Professor Salvador García-Ayllon, responsible for directing this work, the proposal was made through a "detailed study of soil appraisals and valuations face to balance the cost of new infrastructure realistically with the new management urban plan proposed special ".
Thus, the goodwill generated by the development of new space now occupied by the railway would cover the economic cost of burying the arrival of the AVE to the city.
"The project moves to Cartagena philosophy of the proposal currently under discussion in the city of Murcia," says the professor.
The Dr. García-Ayllon also recognizes that with this approach, embracing current trends multimodality made in the context of transport infrastructure, it has responded to the demand of many residents of the city.
"The station is a major inconsistency Mandarache both urban point and from the perspective of railway management of the city, while the underground is a final and comprehensive alternative that does not mortgage the future development of the city," explains Professor UPCT.
The stringency of the economic survey and urban processing of this work is to Salvador García-Ayllon the main advantage of an approach "would not only be good for the city from the planning point of view, but social and economic development".
The teacher does not rule offer the project to the City of Cartagena, with the possibility that it could endorse this proposal.
