PSOE, Citizens, Now Murcia and Cambiemos Murcia have today expressed their support for the demands of the Platform La Costera Sur is also Murcia in relation to the "urgent needs" suffered by the neighbors of the districts affected in the matter of public transport.

The municipal groups have explained that the Southern Coast has been suffering from the "inaction" of the local Government, who, as sources of the Platform itself point out in a report that they have sent to the forces represented in the City Hall, "has done almost nothing For improving services ".

As a "palpable example" of the "disinterest" of the government team in this matter, the groups have highlighted the "many problems" that have affected the normal operation of the service, especially in the past September Fair and during Easter and Holidays Of Spring 2016.

The report of the Platform highlights, in the line of PSOE, Citizens, Now Murcia and Cambiemos Murcia, the difficulties of residents in the Southern Coast to be able to move by public bus, especially in the fifteen days that the municipality will live from in the next week.

Thus, pedanias like Albatalía, La Arboleja, Rincón de Seca or Casillas will not have a service on Holy Saturday, nor will the rest of Saturdays.

In the case of Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday this same problem will be suffered by other areas such as Aljucer, Sangonera la Seca or Javalí Viejo.

The districts that will have the service will suffer a waiting time between one and another expedition of 60 minutes, and even in some cases of 120.

During the Spring Festivities, with the exception of the Huerta and the Burial of La Sardina, "nor can the timetable be compatible with attendance at events or in the barracks", since most of the last departures to the districts take place Between 20 and 22 hours.

According to the municipal groups and the Platform, the "chaos" in public transport planning that takes place in Murcia, especially at parties, does not occur in other large cities such as Seville or Zaragoza.

This municipality, the seventh in number of inhabitants, occupies the position 32 in matter of transport.

"You can not talk about an efficient and dignified transport when more than 60 percent of the population lives outside the city," said PSOE, Citizens, Now Murcia and Cambiemos Murcia, after demanding that the government team "stop mistreating To public transport "and to carry out a coherent and fair planning with the needs of the people who live in districts.
