The mayor of Santiago el Mayor, Juan José Carrillo, has held a meeting this morning with the mayor of Murcia, José Ballesta, to address the most urgent deficiencies that the neighborhood has and that are a concern for its inhabitants, such as mobility , the impulse to the commerce of the zone and a free parking for the residents.

In this sense, Carrillo has indicated that its neighbors are very upset with the transport, since Lightning 80 "falls short" and therefore has proposed "replace these buses with others of greater capacity that could circulate by modifying the layout on two streets ".

In addition, it has also demanded that the necessary procedures be carried out to build a tunnel between Santiago el Mayor and Ronda Sur, that carries traffic below and pedestrians and bicycles above, "like that of Atalayas, because in recent times we have had and four fatal accidents. "

Likewise, he asked about the deterrent parking lot announced by the government team and recalled the deficit of parking spaces for residents of the area, so any parking space should be free for them.

He has also explained to Ballesta that the place where this parking has been planned is where the celebrations of Santiago el Mayor are celebrated and, therefore, is needed for that purpose.

The mayor said that "in any case, what we will not allow the neighbors is to take away the problem with the train and put us cars, because then we have them, since that parking has been planned without having the Municipal board".

Another of the outstanding issues is to boost trade in the area, whose business is affected by the underground works, and has claimed that all planned money be made available to traders, "both the 150,000 euros of this phase and others games, since this group needs the support of the administration at this stage. "

Likewise, Juan José Carrillo has pointed out the delay with the implementation of the municipal center, planned next to the library and that "it is very necessary for the neighborhood groups because we have a rental place for which the City Council is paying 900 euros to month, in which there is no place for everyone. "

Finally, the pednial mayor said that Ballesta has taken note of everything, so "we hope that in a short time we can solve our problems."
