The Municipal Socialist Group claims that the project Murcia River is much more than a bike lane or walking area and that helps to recover the natural ecosystem that forms the Segura and that is the heart of the garden.
Therefore, any intervention must take into account that the banks are an essential part of this ecosystem.
The spokesman of the Municipal Socialist Group, José Ignacio Gras, who, accompanied by councilman Enrique Ayuso, attended the presentation this morning of the Murcia River project by the mayor, José Ballesta, believes that "we start supporting any initiative that goes to Improve the lives of citizens, but always without losing sight of the fact that, in this case, we are facing a natural space, which must preserve its diversity and its landscape ".
In addition, remember that the river is already passable by pedestrians and cyclists, so that "today's presentation does not inform us of a novel project, different or unknown, since we are talking about extending in two kilometers what already exists and that They enjoy many Murcia, as is the bike path by the river's speck ".
Gras insists that "any project that will improve the life of Murcia will have the support of the Socialist Group without any objection, but today is still an announcement of Mayor Ballesta, so we will assume our role as opposition To control that it is a reality ".
He also states that "Segura is not only the section that is in front of the mayor's office, in the Glorieta, so we remember that we have repeatedly denounced the poor state of elements that are proper to the channel, , The Contraparada ".
On the other hand, Gras states that "Murcia Río project can not hide other more urgent and global needs for the municipality, such as transportation and various deficiencies constantly claimed by district and municipal boards in neighborhoods and districts."
