The Socialist group demands Jose Ballesta Mayor comply plenary municipal agreement, legality and compromises, 2006

The Municipal Socialist Party spokesman in the city of Murcia, José Ignacio Gras, reiterated Friday the Socialist Party demands that the AVE reach Murcia without delay, in the shortest time possible and at the same time, Underground work begin.

"The AVE can now get to Murcia and, simultaneously, can begin tunneling work from the road Tiñosa logical order to continue the construction. You can not limit the work to the simple removal of a level crossing Development and wants. "

Also Gras said that, according to the conclusions of the legal report commissioned by the council, the works have already started at the station of El Carmen "do not respond to the legality we have demanded from the beginning and can not form part of a project that provides comprehensive guarantees for the burial. "

Therefore, the PSOE claims the mayor of Murcia, José Ballesta that meets the agreement of the City Council, which has nothing to do with a delay of works, but compliance with the law and the agreements signed in the year 2006.

Socialist spokesman demanded that the works being carried out at the station of El Carmen to suit the arrival of the AVE provisionally and surface desliguen project underground and are fully paid by ADIF and not by the company Murcia High speed.

"These works should be financed in full by the central government, as they are performed in order to adjust the station temporarily for technical reasons and have nothing to do with the ultimate goal of the Society Murcia High Speed, which is to make a burial with full participation of the City Council and the Community. This is a refurbishment within a station owned by ADIF and therefore, it is up to the Government of Spain finance ".

Gras has also indicated that the central government to finance the refurbishment of El Carmen, the planned investment by the city of Murcia would go to full burial.

"Thus the works of excavation will be streamlined as we can increase the available funds, reaching 55 million euros, to start immediately the works from the beginning, in the Camino de Tiñosa, as projected in 2006 ".

Jose Ignacio Gras explained that this double request "is technically and economically feasible and allows the surface AVE provisionally come within six months, while complying with the 2006 agreement and begin work on a comprehensive excavation more budget available for this first phase. "
