The socialist spokeswoman Susana Hernandez reminds Ballesta that the step at the level of Santiago el Mayor was going to close for two years and that the PSOE government's position has allowed it to finally be eight months, so it demands that it reverse all of the budgeted for the shuttle "thus ensuring a quality service for all"
The Municipal Socialist Group in the City of Murcia has criticized "the cynicism of Ballesta to pretend to listen to the residents of southern Murcia and then do what you want without your opinion," in relation to the implementation of bus service free shuttle that should facilitate the mobility of the neighbors during the closing of the crossing at the level of Santiago el Mayor.
"In October of 2017, in a hurry, the Ballesta government consulted the municipal boards on the three possible routes of the shuttle depending on the needs of the neighbors, two years later and unilaterally, Ballesta starts up a journey that has nothing to do with the option approved by the boards of the zone ", explained the spokesperson of the Municipal Socialist Group Susana Hernández.
"We know that Ballesta does not believe in participation and that in the DNA of the PP in the City of Murcia goes to always discriminate south of the municipality," he added, "but it seems to us an exercise of absolute political pasotism to pass over the opinion of the neighbors, pretending to give them participation, promising what is known in advance that they will not comply and doing things, as always, from the opacity ".
Hernandez has criticized harshly "the thrifty eagerness of Ballesta and his team at all costs", and has demanded the mayor of the PP to invest what was planned to launch the shuttle routes and sufficient frequencies to respond in a real way to the needs of mobility of the area.
"With the plans of the PP, the level crossing was to be closed for two years, so the amount allocated to finance shuttle buses was much higher than the current one, with a closure of only eight months. The amount left is a simple rule of 3. What Ballesta should do is take the money he has left over by cutting the deadlines and investing in providing quality service to the neighbors in the area. in motion the number three option approved by the neighbors of the south that also gave service to San Pío and that increases the frequency of passage of the shuttles every fifteen minutes instead of the current thirty ".
The spokesperson of the Socialist Group also recalled that Ballesta was committed to the neighbors of the south to take care of security around the catwalk, "but when the truth is private security is paying ADIF, for what the PP has once again lied to the neighbors of Ronda Sur "
"The PP in Murcia has only acted coherently in one aspect in these twenty-four years and is in flagrant discrimination in the south of the municipality," he concluded.
