The PSOE will propose anti-pollution measures "in the face of the inoperance of the Crossbow team" (02/01/2020)

José Antonio Serrano denounces that all the new meters that were announced in 2018 and 2019 have not been incorporated and we have no record of whether they detect PM 2.5 particles that are the smallest and most damaging, despite having requested the information in Two occasions.

The measures of the protocol published in 2018 are not being fully complied with and are ineffective, and there is not a single measure to encourage the use of public transport.

The spokesman José Antonio Serrano has decided to take the step to propose to the government team an anti-pollution operational plan in the face of the ineffectiveness of the team led by Mayor Ballesta.

In 2018, a protocol was published that does not propose any measure to encourage the use of public transport.

The PSOE denounces that Ballesta is still the announcement man but on such important issues as health we cannot afford to wait for Smartcity to become a reality, Serrano adds that "in November 2018, the City of Murcia awarded 5.4 million euros in new intelligent traffic control system, but we see how the Ballesta team still does not make decisions on sensitive issues, and while our neighbors continue to breathe polluting air, "Serrano said.

A few days ago Ballesta presented a series of initiatives, among them related to public transport that are the same as the PP have been announcing since 2011, "between study and study, citizens have the same mobility problems and this time are aggravated by pollution. "

It has been shown that most of the high levels of pollution are derived from the intensive use of the private vehicle and that the solution would be based on a substantial improvement in the use of public transport, a problem to which the PP has been unable to solve in 25 years, "Ballesta cannot say that he did not know the traffic problems because when he was a Development Advisor and José Guillén, manager of the Public Transport Entity, they put more than 30 pages of allegations to the PMUS (Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan of the Municipality of Murcia) in that the City Council spent a total of 359,600 euros in 2013, and again we have just learned that the Glorieta Government team will invest another 137,248.16 euros in a new study. While this happens, we cannot afford not to act with these levels of pollution. "

says Serrano.

On the other hand, the Socialist Group requested in writing months ago the characteristics of the new pollution meters that the mayor announced again on December 27, after they were announced in 2018 and again in 2019 and still no response has been received any.

So the spokesman José Antonio Serrano says that "we need to know immediately what types of meters are going to be installed, where they are going to be located, what is going to be measured, and what are the action protocols that are going to be carried out. Once the levels of contamination have been detected, "Serrano also points out that" given the ineffectiveness of the Ballesta Government team and while this is happening, we will propose a series of urgent measures that we will take to the Plenary Session of the City Council of Murcia. "

At the moment, the City of Murcia does not even have reliable pollution meters, in addition to not being located in areas that give us a real situation of the state of pollution in the city.

The problem is such, says Serrano "that data are taken automatically, but they are mechanized manually and on weekends there is no one to take data and send them to take measures and inform the citizens, if it were "Serrano also points out that" we are very concerned that we have a protocol, without measures to encourage the use of public transport and with measurements that are not reliable, so we understand that for the government team it is not a problem that worries you Really"

Serrano declares that "I hope that Ballesta does not have the same opinion as his party partner and president of the Community of Madrid, Díaz Ayuso, who says that nobody has died of pollution", "we have serious doubts that Ballesta is clear about what it is the transport model to vertebrate this municipality, this new study will take us to another setback and in which we have spent almost 500,000 euros, without having immediate solutions that can begin to solve the problems of pollution of the city.
