- Angeles Micol criticizes that "with so much previous announcement, it seems that the Government of Ballesta instead of pedestrianizing a street is going to undertake an exceptional work as the Louvre or the Sagrada Familia.Peatonalization is being done with much more frequency, normality and rationality In dozens of Spanish cities "

NOW MURCIA demands that the pedestrianization of Alfonso X the Wise "does not invade the street of terraces and gadgets" and that "really gives absolute priority to the pedestrian, which should be the objective of this type of urban development."

The councilor Angeles Micol is surprised that the PP "has been more than a year announcing periodically the pedestrianization of this street, a few hundred meters, and it seems that instead of pedestrianizing a road will undertake an exceptional work as the Museum The Louvre or the Holy Family. "

The mayor says that "pedestrianization is being carried out with much more frequency, normality and rationality in dozens of Spanish cities, and that is where Ballesta should look."

Micol recalls that the pedestrianization of Alfonso X "was a proposal of Now Murcia, who presented an austere and reasonable project that, falling into the hands of the PP has been converted, as it always does, into a pharaonic plan in which they intend to invest an amount Disproportionate money ".

What Ballesta poses for Alfonso X "is closer to a theme park than anything else, and that is not the idea of ​​pedestrianizing the historical center of a city, nor is it being done in other cities that serve as a reference. Spanish cities are constantly pedestrianized and without so much paraphernalia.If for a few hundred meters ride circus, it is better not to think what would happen if you consider pedestrianizing spaces much larger, as has been done in other locations and as is the trend in More livable and sustainable cities. "

The Councilwoman insists that "there is no merit in pedestrianizing a street, the Government of Ballesta should give much more normal to this type of actions" and stresses that "the key in pedestrianization is to recover the city for the pedestrian. Pedestrianizing is not creating leisure spaces, they are very different measures ".
