Has described as "incomprehensible" that there are different concessionaires operating in the municipality, and denounced the "lack of coordination" that this is because "they are unable to reach an agreement among themselves and with the authorities concerned."

He asserted that the IU-Greens campaign "goes beyond the bus" because "the solution to the transport problem happens to have a sustainable mobility plan" to include other media such as tram, bicycle and train.

In this sense, has defended the burial of roads passing through Murcia, "then comes the bird or not is secondary," and has rejected the proposal of the PP on the construction of a wall to the high speed because "implies division of the municipality and an architectural barrier impassable for many citizens. "

Regarding the Transport Council, has argued that the constitution of the "is a pantomime over PP and aims distract citizens from the frequent protests, and cover the huge gaps that have to resolve this conflict."

"The mayor of Murcia, Miguel Ángel Cámara, violates the Charter for the Right to the City, which cities must guarantee everyone the right to mobility and movement, according to a travel plan and through public transport system accessible, affordable. "

Among the proposals of IU-Greens on transport, Muñoz stressed promoting free park and ride shuttle bus service and the creation of a sustainable mobility plan and the opening of a process for modifying part of the master plan of the bicycle, including the contributions of associations and social groups.

Tax increase

On the tax increases announced yesterday by the city of Murcia, Muñoz has claimed that she "will sink more and all citizens affected by the crisis", after which he assured that these taxes "should be higher for the most and least be lowered or frozen for those who have less. "

"In addition, the measures of the government team taxed more to those sectors for PP are a problem, such as health and culture" because, in his view, "a cultured people is a problem for the interests of the PP" .

He noted that the procedure is "totally undemocratic to hide information and take it for approval when it has not met the committee concerned, which are groups of the opposition."

It has therefore called on the public to participate in all the calling demonstrations against cuts in public transport and in favor of this law "we want to take."
