The Socialists will force the PP to respond if the modification that it intends to make of the project of works of section 1 of the Round, and that will suppose that this one crosses at the level inferior of the current drawn up one of the railroad instead of by an elevated step, will affect the project of the Central Round and the future underground passage of the AVE through the city
The Spokesman of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, Diego José Mateos has returned to show his concern for the intention of the Popular Party to modify the project works of section I of the Round of Central Evacuation of Lorca.
The PSOE suspects that this new modification will affect this project "vital" for the city with "new delays" and future underground passage of the AVE, it could limit the distance in which the railway must cross, buried, through the helmet urban of the city.
The Socialists will force the Popular Party to respond immediately in the Regional Assembly, through several questions that the regional deputy, Isabel Casalduero, has registered in the Plenary Assembly.
Mateos has reported that his party will require the PP to respond "urgently" if they already have the mandatory reports of ADIF, or the competent body, which ensures that this change will not affect the burial of the railway, at least in the "unrenounceable" objective that must be the underground passage for 4.5 kilometers, so as not to "leave" the urban area.
In addition, they will ask if the modification of section I, due to its importance and price, will mean an alteration of the essential contracting and bidding conditions determined in Article 107.3 of the Consolidated Text of the Law on Public Sector Contracts.
In this case, they require the PP to clarify what cost estimates, new deadlines and award procedures are estimated in this regard, since it could lead to the termination of the current contract and have to start a new recruitment file, after the current one It will take more than a year to process.
Mateos suspects that this new modification may cause more delays and, therefore, may jeopardize the financing of the Central Round project.
In this sense, he assures that it is "another example" of the "long list" of projects that the Popular Party is putting "in danger" for its "null and chaotic" way of planning the works and projects of the city.
The delays in the drafting and awarding of sections I and II of the Central Round, join the long list of projects charged to the EIB that the Popular Party maintains "paralyzed or very delayed", such as the regeneration of San Antonio, the Viejo del Puerto road, the polygon of La Salud-Cristo Rey, Avenida Santa Clara or Avenida Europa.
Mateos reminds that the works under the EIB loan must be completed by December 2018 so that the financing is not lost, so, taking into account that only in the "paperwork" they have spent approximately one year, ensures that the award and execution of pending works "will be on the edge".
