The orange formation affirms that the ruling published by the TSJ shows that the PP has doubled the municipal budget, while it faces the concessionaires of public transport in the municipality of Murcia

The municipal group Citizens has demanded the urgent meeting of the Transport Bureau to claim the management of bus lines to the districts of Murcia.

The orange formation believes that the sentence of the TSJ published today reveals that "the PP has doubled the municipal budget while facing the concessionaries of public transport in the municipality of Murcia."

Citizens has reacted to the appeal of the public transport concessionaire UTE in the municipality of Murcia, which has just rejected the TSJ, to point out that "said ruling shows that the only achieved by the PP with its management of public transport For more than twenty years has been to face companies and cut services, harming users and workers. "

Thus, the spokesman for the orange formation recalled that the budget that paid the Consistory Murcia until 2011, 9 million euros, has doubled to 18 million euros at present.

"The cost of poor management of the PP weighs on the pocket of the Murcia, given that public transport is financed through the users, the taxes we all pay," said Gómez.

Likewise, the Citizens' spokesperson has pointed out that the local government must amend, in its entirety, both the management of public transport in the City Council;

Such as the 2017 budget line for this purpose, "although we seriously doubt the ability of José Ballesta and his team to manage this service."

Gómez recalled that his political training has presented and will continue to present proposals to increase lines, improve frequencies and match rates and bonuses.

Another reason why orange formation requires the urgent call of the Transport Committee is to also deal, as a matter of urgency, the plenary agreement adopted unanimously last January, which the City Council should urge To the regional government to cede the management of the interurban lines that unite the different districts of the municipality.

"When two years have passed since José Ballesta's arrival in power, the situation, far from improving, continues to worsen, since the conflict between administrations and concession companies has been settled in the courts, while Murcia continue to pay for public transport Most expensive in Spain, "finished Gómez.
