- Alicia Morales claims that the City Council has the project to install "spotlights of color" in the urban stretch of the river, which is incompatible with the BIC declaration of the Old Bridge and its protection environment
NOW MURCIA shows its satisfaction after having managed to extend the protection environment of the Old Bridge in its process of opening as a BIC.
The spokeswoman of the municipal group, Alicia Morales, explains that "the General Directorate of Cultural Property has accepted, through a resolution, the allegations that our vowel in the municipal council of El Carmen, Rafa Ródenas, interposed to extend the protection environment Of the Old Bridge ".
A few months ago, when the file of the procedure as BIC of Puente Viejo was in a period of public exposure and allegations, Ródenas presented allegations for the protection environment to include a greater space than initially intended to protect the Autonomous Community, "which was clearly Insufficient ", says the vocal.
"From Now Murcia we believed it necessary that the protection environment should comprise elements closely related to the Old Bridge and without which this future BIC can not be adequately understood."
Alicia Morales points out that these areas and elements incorporated into the BIC protection environment after the allegations of Now Murcia are "the access slope to the Old Bridge from the Carmen neighborhood, Camachos square, San Francisco flat, access to the Several of these elements had also been contemplated by the College of Architects in a report on the BIC declaration of the bridge.
The councilor warns that, however, not everything is good news in relation to this important patrimonial property, "because we warn that there is a project of the Department of Urbanism in the stage of processing to put spotlights of color in the urban section of the river , Which is incompatible with the BIC declaration of Puente Viejo and with its protection environment until the catwalk Miguel Caballero.
Morales states that "under the Cultural Heritage Law, some of the focuses included in the project can not be placed, since one of them is inside the BIC and others in its protection environment." These points are incompatible with the BIC statement and Must be eliminated, respecting the monumental image of the bridge and its surroundings.
"There is a similar precedent," he adds, "since the Ministry of Culture prohibited the permanent color illumination that the City Council wanted to install in Belluga Square, and it was finally allowed to be used only on specific days for some commemoration."
The mayor of Now Murcia stresses that "the protection of the environment of the Old Bridge includes the two nearby footbridges and the river walls in between, so that future actions such as the placement of posters on those walls or the installation of hanging sculptures in The gateways must be authorized by the Ministry of Culture, because those actions, framed in the protection environment, can not distort the image of the monumental whole.
Morales denounces that "from Now Murcia we have requested in several occasions that the councils that have placed posters and other elements in the surroundings of the Old Bridge and in him they will give us the corresponding Culture permits, but never they have sent them to them. Watch with much more zeal than has hitherto provided the protection of the Old Bridge and its surroundings. "
