Murcia.

31.12.2018 From Murcia we remind you that it is the municipality's obligation not only to activate the action protocol when PM10 particle levels are exceeded, but also to ensure that the measures contemplated in it are complied with.

In this regard, the edile of the formation, Margarita Guerrero has stressed that in addition to the recommendations by the media to the public, we must pay special attention to the restriction of traffic as in the burning of stubble.

However, the mayor continued, "we have verified that in the days with activated protocol, agricultural burns were produced, something that should not be done, in the same way that trucks circulated in areas with restricted traffic".

"Since Cambiemos Murcia ask that the government team of the Roundabout take seriously the problem of air pollution, after several days exceeding the maximum levels of PM10 particles and a punctual decrease in the values ​​when changing climatic conditions go back up, so we can not expect rain to solve a problem generated by human action, "said Guerrero.

In this regard, he pointed out that it is also the responsibility of the municipality to make the protocol known to the public so that it can act and comply with the recommendations when necessary.

Guerrero has stated that it is especially worrisome that the Ballesta government has not been able to improve the situation of public transport in the municipality, which is one of the most expensive in Spain, with insufficient frequencies and routes that do not fully meet the needs mobility of neighbors and neighbors, and the existing lines are not reinforced in festive times such as Christmas, New Year's Eve, spring parties, etc.

According to the training, a firm political will is needed to face a situation that affects the health of the population, air quality should be among the priorities of any government team and requires action in different areas, one of them, the restriction of the traffic in private vehicle and promotion of the use of public transport.

Likewise, Guerrero recalled that "these episodes are often repeated every so often and therefore can not be attributed to the holidays as stated by Antonio Navarro, last November, for example, also exceeded the levels of particular PM10, so it is necessary to address this problem with greater forcefulness as other cities such as Madrid are doing, "concluded the mayor.
