Consumur, entitled to be part of the Quality Council of Public Transport, believes that the fact of being excluded simply a response to systematic exclusion from participation bodies and advisory councils which is doomed for certain areas of government, as has happened also with the Social Council of the City of Murcia.

The organization does not understand that in a Council which aims to respond to the demands of the citizens do not consider the important path undertaken by the organization in defense of them.

Consumur, as one of the most representative of the Region of Murcia, has always done and especially since last August, the date on which the application unveiled the "rate hikes" and the deletion and modification bus lines, in the Plan of Transport Resource Optimization, an important work of defending the rights of citizens of the municipality, as ridership.

Proof of this are the various press releases issued by the organization in August and September showing their displeasure and full rejection of the remodeling and removal of bus lines, illegal rise in prices of bus tickets and elimination bond, seeking to turn public transport users affected to interpose the corresponding claim.

In the case of Plan measures Transport Resource Optimization, Management opened a public exhibition period of 15 days, in which Consumur filed a notice of allegations.

In the same opinion expressed Organization and alternatives to bus lines were affected.

Also, Consumur held meetings, face and telephone, with the parties involved to find a quick solution to the problems arising.

In this regard, the President of the organization, Barceló Roberto Vivancos, met with the Manager of the Public Transport Authority of the Region of Murcia, Francisco Luis Lorente, with the Head of Service of the City of Murcia Traffic, Pablo Marin and Deputy Director Latbus, Fulgencio Giménez.

In late September, the organization spread, along with two other consumer and user organizations most representative of the region, Murcia and Thader UCE consumption, a joint press release calling for a quick resolution to the conflict.

Other actions taken by Consumur in defending the rights of the users of public transport, have been integrated into the "Platform for Public Transport", consisting of political parties, unions and neighborhood organizations and consumer and user and aimed at, among others, restoring deleted services, the monthly bonus for all users and between buses and trams.

Also, as other options collective transport, Consumur, working with taxi companies Murcia, promote the use of private cars and taxis shared shared via the creation of a virtual space where users interact and share vehicle.
