Eurovelo are 66,000 kilometers of cycloresports in Europe, of which over 20,000 kilometers are already operational.
A luxury for any cyclist.
Antonio Meca notes that "the towns bathed by the coast of Murcia are experiencing a difficult tourist situation this summer, as evidenced by the official data published to date that confirm a decline in the percentage of hotel occupancy, in a national context of increase of the occupation ".
Eurovelo has 15 routes that cross all Europe.
In the case of Lorca, it is Route 8 that affects us, it has its route throughout the Mediterranean from Athens to Cadiz with 5,888 km of route crossing 11 countries.
However, Route 8 is only certified in Spain in the province of Gerona, being the case of the Region of Murcia especially relevant in regard to the neglect and abandonment of this initiative.
"At this moment, with the economic and environmental situation that crosses the coast of Murcia, we can not remain impassive in the face of the wastage of an opportunity such as the capture of tourism on a European bicycle," said the Councilor who considers it necessary that " with the development and certification of Route 8 of Eurovelo, with its main coastal stretch, with entry through San Pedro del Pinatar and exit by Águilas, passing through the entire Murcia coast and, taking into account the subways that are timely and necessary as they can be Calnegre-Águilas-Lorca-Caravaca, and others that could be developed.
