Ciudadanos returns to the charge in the Congress to improve the rail connection between Murcia and Cartagena (26/05/2018)

- "We are very clear that we are not going to allow the arrival of High Speed ​​to further reduce the services of the Cercanías, which in 2017 alone lost more than 50,000 passengers due to the continuous breakdowns of the old trains, on the contrary, we want Take advantage of this opportunity and the movements that are being made so that the main urban and university centers of the Region are perfectly connected ", explained the National Deputy of Citizens, Miguel Garaulet

Ciudadanos returns to the charge in the Congress to get improve the rail connection between Murcia and Cartagena.

The orange formation asks for explanations for the deficient situation of the regional train line between Cartagena and Murcia, and for the vagueness and rodeos of the Ministry of Public Works to explain their plans to implement the Cercanías service between the two most populated cities of the Community Autonomous

This week, the national deputies, Miguel Garaulet and José Luis Martínez, have presented a new set of questions in the Congress.

The national deputy of the orange formation, Miguel Garaulet, explained that "despite the continuous criticism of passengers who use the regional line of Cartagena-Murcia train daily, and despite the fact that users and the Polytechnic University of Cartagena require For years, a commuter service that is more frequent, faster, cheaper and that reduces delays, the trains of this line have been, for the time being, out of the investment announced by Renfe in the short and medium term.

Despite the fact that last February 13, Ciudadanos registered a battery of questions on this matter, "in its response, the Government did not clarify why the Ministry discarded the implementation in Cartagena of a Cercanías with Murcia service," he said. Garaulet said that "the obstinacy of our party is stronger than the indifference of the PP government, and that is why we will continue to press for what plans, improvements and investments are planned for this line, if there is a will to transform it into a line of Cercanías, and if you can confirm that you are going to make a disbursement similar to the one that is going to be done for Murcia-Alicante and Murcia-Lorca-Águilas lines.

On the other hand, the orange formation regrets the ambiguity of Fomento to respond and inform on how the arrival of the AVE to the Region will reorder railway traffic and to what extent that will involve the reorganization of the Cercanías services.

It is precisely this lack of concreteness, together with decades of abandonment and indifference, that has motivated the work committees of Renfe Operadora and Adif to hold protests and rallies in the stations of Murcia and Cartagena, and that they are preparing a large demonstration the 30th in Murcia to demand the modernization of the Cercanías trains.

Citizens has no other objective than the arrival of the AVE to the Region under the best conditions and a modern and efficient Cercanías network, "and we are very clear that we are not going to allow the arrival of High Speed ​​to diminish even more the services of Cercanías, which in 2017 alone lost more than 50,000 passengers due to the continuous breakdowns of the old trains, on the contrary, we want to take advantage of this opportunity and the movements that are being made so that the main urban and university centers of the Region are perfectly connected "
