The Socialist Group calls for the removal of the branch of the trolley to the UCAM about the low number of passengers (30/04/2012)

Moreover, the spokesman of the PSOE, Pedro Lopez, defends the need to incorporate this service to nearby towns like Javalí Viejo and La Nora, very useful for its 6,000 inhabitants, and consider it also reaches New Javalí and Sewer

Lopez has also highlighted the importance of advancing the semipeatonalización of Gran Via and Plaza Camachos, and so make way for citizens to go for a modern and encourage business

PSOE spokesman, Pedro Lopez, today called on the municipal PP think of the possibility of removing the branch tram that goes to the UCAM considering that it is practically empty.

We are convinced, has emphasized, that suppressing it opens room to renegotiate the subsidy paid by the City Council each month to the company that runs the tram, so it would reduce more than 830,000 euros each month out of municipal funds to defray its cost .

No unity, is expensive and unprofitable

Similarly, Lopez recalled that the Socialist Group of the path of the tram line 1 has been a mistake from the beginning because you have not opted to join the North-South axis of the municipality as well as the high cost (830,000 euros per month , equivalent to almost 10 million annually for 40 years of the concession), and because they have not been met travelers forecasts were summarized the City (277,000 travelers in October compared with 707,500 per month under its first year).

Still in the drawer

Besides being a mistake, the spokesman of the PSOE considered bleeding the line to be 200 kilometers from La Ă‘ora almost a mile of Old Javalí, "because we understand that reaching these populations, the tram would be useful for 6,000 inhabitants" .

Two years have passed since we made this proposal in Parliament and is still in the drawer, so that Lopez requires the local government study to be performed include this project and the possibility that the tram comes to New Sewer Javalí .

As for the need to improve public transport North-South axis of the town, the Socialist spokesman said it was desperately needed, since from the Round the neighborhood of El Carmen is concentrated densely populated and although initiatives have been announced as the express bus has never been done.

"No one disputes that the tram is an organic, modern and effective, but in the present context we doubt that the tram will be the most appropriate when you consider what is happening with line 1," said .

Semipeatonalización Gran Via and Plaza Camachos

Similarly, Lopez stressed that although the economic study that will instruct the City advised against joining, by tram, north and south of the city on the Gran Via, remains a priority semipeatonalización progress in this pathway and thus make room for citizens and encourage commercial activity, as proposed by the socialists in its election manifesto.

Socialist spokesman has stressed the importance and need for progress on pedestrianization and stressed that the initiative to make room for pedestrians should not remain in the river, but the area should also semipeatonalizarse Camachos square with the same criteria.
