Serrano: "More than 400,000 Murcians will benefit from the hybrid trains that the Ministry of Public Works has launched in Murcia" (18/09/2018)

The Municipal Secretary of the PSOE in Murcia and candidate for mayor of Murcia, José Antonio Serrano, congratulates the Ministry of Development for the implementation of the hybrid train that connects Murcia with Madrid in three and a half hours, and that can shortly be reduced to three hours with the commissioning of the Camarillas Variant.

Serrano stressed "the benefit that this initiative will have in more than 400,000 travelers who throughout the year use the Murcia-El Carmen station for its connection to Madrid, round trip, according to the 2016 Report of the Railway Observatory in Spain" (406,672).

In his opinion, "although provisional, it is an important advance since it has an impact on the comfort of the people who make this trip, allowing them to take advantage of the time they previously lost in the journey in other work or personal activities."

He also recalled that hybrid trains arrive almost seven years late to Murcia, since of the five assigned to the Region in 2011 by the Ministry of Development of the previous socialist government, none has arrived.

"These trains arrive with more than six years of delay to Murcia and shows the receptivity of the Government of Pedro Sánchez to solve the problems that the PP has generated in our city," he said.

He has also shown his perplexity at the contempt of the PP of the City of Murcia before the implementation of this new service, rejecting the invitation made by the Government Delegate, Diego Conesa, to make the first trip of this train.

From his point of view "politicians must be at the service of what supposes greater well-being for their neighbors, and not the other way around".
