The socialist councilor Enrique Ayuso regrets that the project "for the photo" of Ballesta "is costing money of all Murcia and Murcia and that, after the rains of these days, what little had been advanced has been covered by mud and inverted has not served at all "
The Municipal Socialist Group in the City of Murcia has denounced, once again on Monday, "the desire for media prominence of Ballesta" in relation to the Murcia River project and the work undertaken these days under water by the rise of the Safe river.
The councilor of the Socialist Group Enrique Ayuso has criticized that, despite the usual behavior of the Segura River, which overflows covering its margins at least once a year, "Ballesta has decided to be negligent and has opted to invest in a project that is unviable in our river, at least as it has been proposed by the PP government ".
"The proof is in these days of heavy rains that have made disappear the actions that had been carried out in recent times on the banks of the river, including a bike path, the new vegetation planted and what appeared to be the beginning of some future sidewalks, money from all Murcia and Murcia invested in an unrealistic project in our river as it passes through Murcia ", explained Ayuso.
The mayor has indicated that, "blinded by his addiction to photos, the headlines, the sale of smoke and phantom projects, Ballesta has neglected the most important: solve the problems of contamination and proliferation of pests in the river."
"Now, due to the lack of foresight of the PP government since they do not seem to know the municipality and its river, everything that had been done in the area has been covered with water and mud, so it will be necessary to invest time and money to clean it and clean up the area when the river level goes down and start again when we have not even been able to enjoy the little Murcia and Murcia had progressed in the Murcia River project, "he added.
"It has been demonstrated these days that Murcia River is a media project that seeks to focus on the mayor, but that is, like so many other things announced Ballesta, poorly raised," lamented Ayuso, who also recalled that the actions included in Murcia River are only designed for the center of Murcia and not for the river as it passes through other enclaves of the municipality, "because even in this Ballesta obviates the districts."
Floods, urban rivers and cut streets
Councilman Enrique Ayuso has also influenced on Monday the "scandalous neglect" of the government team in relation to the recurring floods of streets in our municipality when it rains abundantly.
"We have denounced it as active and passive, we have taken motions to the municipal plenary session, we have demanded that the bad urban planning of our municipality be solved, especially in the northern zone, although it has been newly built, but for years the PP has ignored our denunciations and the complaints of neighbors who, whenever it rains, see how streets are closed or how entire neighborhoods are drowned. "
"There is no drainage infrastructure that channels the water and, specifically, in the northern zone, we are talking about a highly paved area, and in general, in the municipality of Murcia, there is still not enough political will to address the problem and, every time it rains, it is necessary to warn the population, to put fences in the same points of always to close to the authentic traffic urban rivers and to complain about the bad weather as if it was the fault of the lack of interest of the government of La Glorieta, "he concluded. Ayuso.
