The Municipal Group Socialist councilor in the city of Murcia, Juan Vicente Larrosa, lamented Friday that the council has not taken these past four years as head of the Network of Cities for the Bicycle Murcia to convert into a real leader in this regard .
"The City of Murcia has wasted these four years. It has not developed the promised projects, has not encouraged the use of bicycles and has not brought the city for cyclists can cross it safely," said Larrosa.
The socialist mayor has criticized the lack of initiative of the PP government, "which only has moved in recent months by starting the bike rental service, but without having created a network of segregated streets where cyclists and pedestrians They can live and without conditioning the bike paths that currently present deterioration. "
In this regard, Larrosa has denounced the poor state of lanes like the Mota del Rio, full of dirt and represents a danger for cyclists, and recalled that organizations of bicycle users denounce the neglect of the rails, some with curbs and significant gaps between the rail and road adjacent land.
Also, the council of the Socialist Group recalled the lack of existing bicycle lanes in pedestrian zones, as in the case of the Plaza del Cardenal Belluga, where it is impossible to ride a bicycle.
"Murcia could be a modern, sustainable city, which presume a high rate of bicycle users and a network of streets and lanes fully furnished. But the city of Murcia has been devoted to patching cycling trails and put one here and there haphazardly. The system bike rental might work better and have more users if you bet on friendly town with cyclists. These four years as head of the Network of Cities for the Bicycle have only served to make patents Murcia has deficiencies in this regard, "concluded Larrosa.
