The initiative, a pioneer in Lorca, is a new proposal for the PSOE to attract new sectors of tourism, and encourage another type of tourism that leaves economic, social and tourism benefits under a minimal investment
The councilor of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, María Antonia García Jiménez has requested the creation of a space for the parking of caravans to attract this type of tourism to the municipality.
They assure that it is a "viable and beneficial" proposal for Lorca.
Socialists have proposed on many occasions "new profiles" to promote tourism in Lorca, from congress tourism, archeology or rural through the wealth of the districts, in addition to enhancing, of course, seasonal tourism as the one of Holy Week, the celebrations of the Pattern and the Employer, and of leisure, like the Fair of September.
Garci'a Jiménez assures that the Popular Party "has been dedicated to silencing each and every one of the suggestions of the PSOE".
He adds that the government team has entered into a loop of narcissistic and stagnant complacency, which does not benefit the economy of this city in general, nor the merchants and hoteliers, in particular, who continually complain about the abandonment they feel.
Given the lack of ideas of a PP, insists, "exhausted", the Socialists continue to propose initiatives to attract new sectors of tourism.
In this case, ask the PP to study and establish one or more parking areas for caravans and similar vehicles, which to date are nonexistent in our large municipality.
At the same time, they ask that the regulation be carried out through specific ordinances to allow their location in a regulated manner.
With this initiative of the PSOE, Lorca would enter the network of municipalities that host this type of tourism, as it already happens with Murcia, Lorquí, Mula or Jumilla.
García Jiménez pointed out that currently, there is a mobile fleet of users of national caravans with more than 30,000 units, which generates income from domestic tourism of more than 140,000 million euros.
The caravans of the rest of Europe that visit our country amount to more than 200,000 according to the statistics last year, with more than 500,000 tourists, who have contributed more 280.00 million euros to the Treasury coffers.
The mayor says that this form of leisure "is on the rise", and there are associations that organize and report routes and possible overnight stays throughout the peninsula.
This, he adds, generates an economic impact in the municipalities where these public parking areas are located, so they ask that Lorca be included in these itineraries, since it would be "enormously positive" for the city's economy.
They propose, in addition, that from the parking points tourist information of all the activities and places of patrimonial, cultural and leisure interest of Lorca be provided.
The parking areas could be diversified both in the proximity of the different points of access to the city center, as well as in the high districts and in the rest of the Guadalentín valley.
