Councilman IU-Greens in the city of Murcia, José Ignacio Tornel, said today that the promotion of cycling in the city "depends on two council faced" on the one hand the Environment, Adela Martinez Cache, and another the Traffic and Transportation, Javier Iniesta.
This is the conclusion that the mayor has come today to the publication in the press of separate pages of advertising to reissue the spreading of "Mutual Respect" campaign Traffic and Transportation.
"Up inefficient, costing us money," stressed Tornel, explaining that "it is inconsistent for the development plan of the bicycle comprising two councilors," but also tackle those responsible are shot in public, the result can lead anywhere. "
According to IU-Greens, so far all the work promoting cycling mobility "had more publicity than concrete actions towards users."
"The city has gained bicycle storage structures, bike lanes painted on sidewalks or celebrations of good intentions."
To this has been added between "who should be managing a specific project, which does not exist, and instead engaged in each act by his side as each day inspires the imagination," "open confrontation".
Tornel has opined that the city can not address a real implementation project bike as mobility system without experiencing the least change in its structure or design of the streets, or in the management of traffic, or systems bicycle safety.
"So situations like the use of sidewalks and bike lanes or forced coexistence between motor vehicles and bicycles are given. Only we spend money on bike parking, small and large, which are then empty, like those installed in John Iniesta Bourbon: empty ".
The most obvious evidence of little interest in promoting mobility bike is, according to the council of training left, that Murcia chairs the Network of Cities for the bike and yet not part of the National Bureau Bike.
"We walked through Europe our presidency of the Network of Cities for the bike and have not been able to maintain a position at the National Bureau for the bike, which have not contributed anything."
Furthermore, Tornel has shown outrage at this "policy paripé" Mayor, Miguel Ángel Cámara, who "decided to make the bike a cornerstone of his administration and indeed remains the silent ruler who has decided to be null progress of the project and at the sight of his councilors, who probably feed himself. "
"This municipal misrule debunks the objectives of the newly established Centre bicycle, intended as a place for meeting and discussion to improve the use of bicycles by the municipality and which are represented all sectors working in this field" he concluded.
