This step, which before the construction of the A-30 motorway was occupied by a very popular traditional road, is in a "regrettable" situation fruit of the "neglect" of the municipal government.
Thus, "it has become a dingy place, with fused lights, walls full of painted and drains clogged, so it floods easily every time it rains."
Councilor for municipal training Sergio Ramos has insisted that this problem makes the residents of La Albatalía "third citizens," because "despite paying their taxes lack good services."
To this, has added the fact that "the neighbors and neighbors of the city have the same difficulties to be able to enter in that zone of orchard where the motorway acts of wall".
For Ramos, it is "necessary" for the City Council to work on the design and implementation of green corridors in preparation for the revision of the General Plan, because otherwise "it will be difficult to boost the value of the garden".
He has demanded that, in the meantime, and "immediately", this step, his connection and signage with the garden of La Seda be arranged and the environment be improved.
To change Murcia, the General Plan never took into account the value of the Huerta, and the city has been growing back to it and surrounded by numerous infrastructures that hinder any connection.
"It is an obsolete urbanism far removed from the new concepts of city that, more respectfully, come to unite the center and the neighborhoods with their rural surroundings and the natural spaces through green corridors."
Ramos has assured that in the municipality there is only the channel of the river and the Paseo del Malecón as nexos of union between the center of the city and the Huerta.
The rest of the neighborhoods are surrounded by avenues, freeways and railroad walls that make it difficult or impossible to join, citizens must conform to go to the small parks or gardens of their neighborhoods, or take the car to have contact with nature .
