Councilman Traffic and Transportation, Javier Iniesta, explained that, even today, continues "stunned and amazed by the position of the Socialists and UI during the plenary session yesterday showing against the arrival of the tram and Carmen district UPyD to abstain. "

"It is no longer opposing a neighborhood where about 23,000 people live can not have an effective means of transport like the tram and efficient but it also contradict words spoken by some of them before," Iniesta added.

The council has stated that "earlier this month, Councilman Pedro Lopez and Municipal Socialist Group spokesperson visited the shuttle to the UCAM and said, literally, that the Socialist Group has always advocated the establishment of a path that would have coverage to the south as it is a more intelligent and ambitious journey that would have given service to populous districts such as El Palmar, city and industrial health of San Ginés ".

Iniesta explained that "if the tram reaches the Carmen district is totally impossible to reach the southern part of town"

"If you really want the tram will serve to improve the transport network connecting the center of the municipality of the city with different neighborhoods and districts, it is understandable that oppose the connection with Carmen".

The mayor wanted to insist that "IU and PSOE can not be opposed to the completion of the feasibility study of the project to extend the tram to Carmen because it is a necessary and essential to carry out any project of this nature."

Iniesta explained that "the position of the PSOE, IU and UPyD must be known by those affected and therefore we will communicate its position to both residents and businesses of the Barrio del Carmen as well as the hamlets of future lines 2, 3 and 4 as El Palmar, Beniaján, Los Ramos, Puebla de Soto Barriomar or because no connection to the Barrio del Carmen and the railway station is impossible to take the tram to all these districts "
