Fulgencio Gil: "What I want is for you to tell me what is going to happen, because we have gone from a hypothetical extension of the burial to delay everything in a matter of hours, a convulsion that has stunned us all."
The Mayor of Lorca, Fulgencio Gil, has met this morning with the presidents of Ceclor and Chamber of Commerce, to address the unjustified and new delay decreed by the Government of Spain against the arrival of the AVE in Murcia, and has anticipated that to attend the event that has been organized in Murcia "because I am seriously worried about what is happening."
Fulgencio Gil has indicated that last Friday the presidents of Ceclor and Chamber of Commerce called me to express their deep concern with the announcement to postpone the arrival of the AVE in Murcia at least 2 more years.
In logical that this delay, unforeseen and unjustified, has raised great concern among the representatives of the main economic sectors of the region, since when we had tied and committed investments, including budgets, projects and dates, we find a scenario that constitutes a serious setback against the interests of Lorca.
The Mayor has affirmed that the current situation is one of total uncertainty, and even of disbelief, since no alternatives are proposed and any explanation is hidden.
We do not know what happened to be "steal the wallet" in this way, but Lorca, logically, we want to know what happens with the arrival of the AVE to Lorca and its region.
We deserve to know and what happens with the works of the sections with Pulpí and Sangonera, and not wait for September as the Government Delegate has come to suggest.
Fulgencio Gil has reported that to date Lorca has not received any response or signal to all the questions that have been caused by this delay.
In fact, the most recent statements by the Secretary of State for Infrastructure do not even mention the projects that have to do with Lorca and its region, and we no longer only talk about our city, but about our neighboring municipalities.
Fulgencio Gil has said that the reality is that this fall Lorca were going to be able to catch a AVE in Murcia, something they have frustrated, also obviating the great economic boost that comes with the arrival of this service.
These are historical demands, issues of special importance, before which we deserve an answer.
What I want is for them to tell me what is going to happen, because we have gone from achieving a hypothetical extension of the burial, to parking everything in a matter of hours, a convulsion that has stunned us all.
The Mayor has stressed that it is not about establishing positions of force, but to demand responses to a Government of Spain that is obliged to explain itself to Lorca.
We must remember that the previous government gave them, including the recovery of rail communication with Andalusia, and suddenly and without warning is delayed for at least 2 years.
The closure of the lines with Almeria and Granada was the biggest mistake in the history of our country in terms of railways, hopefully we will not encounter a similar setback, since it would mean double punishment.
The headquarters of Ceclor has hosted this afternoon a working meeting in which representatives of Ceclor, Chamber of Commerce and the City Council itself participated to address this new delay at the arrival of the AVE.
The President of Ceclor, Antonio García Díaz, has expressed his concern over the statements made by the Government Delegate delaying the arrival of the AVE in Murcia for 2 years: "We are in tune with Croem. It does not make sense to delay this work because it seriously harms The interests of all citizens We know that the infrastructure will be completed in a few weeks and could enter service soon This delay does not make sense, there is no logical reason, and it is also a decision taken outside the business groups. and they define the economic development of the future, communications determine business development, we do not understand it and we are going to demand that they give us a valid reason, because this delay does not make sense ".
The Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce, Gregorio González, stressed that we have been "too many years behind and now that we already had the infrastructure, more delays, we all want underground in Murcia and Lorca, and we will have it, but that can not We can not wait for more years of delay, now they say that 2 years, when we all know what can change things in a short time, so we can go decades and not have it. we ask that the AVE come now.
