The socialist candidate for mayor of Murcia, Pedro Lopez, believes that a work like the tram, which will cost the Murcia 360 million euros over 40 years, should have started with an itinerary that, in addition to structure the city was economically sustainable.
Therefore, Lee stressed that the tram works should have been started by the most profitable line, and in the case of Murcia this is what unites the universities with El Palmar.
"The Hall Mobility Plan has been prepared without taking into account the municipality as a whole, neglected and isolated, leaving the south, in the absence of a planned tram route more intelligent and ambitious than had been serving as populated districts such as El Palmar, Medical City and the industrial area of ​​San Ginés.
The profitability of a service-has highlighted the Socialist candidate is measured by frequency of use and once made a mistake the first round, giving priority to other interests to the needs of citizens, it is best to incorporate this service nuclei near the areas through which it passes.
No possibility
Pedro Lopez, which makes no sense is to leave the service to 6,000 residents of The Old Javalí Nora and 12,000 from the hamlet of Cabezo de Torres.
He adds that "taking the tram to the Old Javalí Ñora and would enhance the value of our heritage, as is the wheel of La Ñora, emblematic for the garden, and the windmills and canals, together with parallel actions of government local, could boost tourism in the area and generate economic activity so necessary in these times.
At the cost of removing buses
Similarly, the PSOE candidate wonders what service is going to have this means of transportation on weekends to the universities and what will be the profitability of this line on holiday and summer.
In this sense, Lee has stated that "the PP what you're looking for is the return of the tram at the expense of eliminating bus routes necessary for the mobility of the residents of the south, severely affected by these measures."
"In a city as unique as ours, the tram should serve to link the downtown with the different neighborhoods and districts, instead of contributing to increasing problems of communication, such as is happening," he will insist López.
