"It is clear once again that one thing is the ads and lying words, repeated, and quite another are the facts."
So it has referred Municipal spokesman, Jose Ignacio Gras, Socialist Group to the answer given by Adif (Railway Infrastructure Administrator) to a citizen of Murcia interested in the project undergrounding arrival of the AVE to the municipality.
In a letter to this neighbor, Adif ensures that the planned project is the arrival of the AVE surface and the burial of a single section between South Ronda and James.
"We are vehemently opposed to the draft minisoterramiento as we did in the municipal Plenum of September 2015, where we defended and we approved an initiative to demand the draft comprehensive underground from road Tiñosa" recalled the socialist mayor, who he has stressed that "the arrival of the AVE and the burial are two works that must be united and Murcia can not settle for a partial undergrounding or accept the ninguneo to which we are submitting".
Gras also recalled that there have been numerous occasions in which the Socialist Group has called on the Murcia High Speed ​​Society to meet to require the Ministry of Public Works undergrounding from the beginning.
"The mayor Ballesta, as a member of the Board of Murcia High Speed ​​should be permanently requiring compliance with the motions approved in plenary and defending the interests of the residents of the municipality, especially those residing along the tracks" .
Socialist spokesman has described as "very serious" the passivity of Ballesta and said that "if the mayor of Murcia and the president of the Autonomous Community knew that the burial was not going to do from the beginning and with all the guarantees, should having informed, I have publicly denounced and have lobbied as responsible for defending the interests of Murcia ".
Gras added that "if, on the contrary, neither Ballesta and Sanchez are aware of what Adif indicated in the letter, prove to be allowing it to pass over Murcia and Murcia without exercising the least power in Madrid".
"The citizens of Murcia are tired of promises and empty words. We want facts," insisted Jose Ignacio Gras, who has finished calling back to Crossbow "requiring the arrival of the AVE and the undergrounding just was as committed, indicating deadlines and budget to carry out excavation project on track starting Tiñosa ".
