| Due to the continuous delays and the marginalization of the Pedro Sánchez government | All the groups in the Senate, EXCEPT THE PSOE, yesterday supported the Popular Party's motion demanding that the commitments established by the Ministry of Development with the arrival of the AVE to Lorca, the underground and the connection with Andalusia be respected. Francisco Bernabé: "Lorca society supports the Popular Party's underground project and wants to start enjoying as soon as possible the prosperity, work and progress that the AVE and the Mediterranean Corridor bring.
We are going to work hard to avoid this marginalization so evident ", has remarked in the Senate. • Fulgencio Gil: "Pedro Sánchez's government is constant bad news: it has not had enough to take 7.5 million from the IBI bonus, or to suppress the 3 million planned for districts, or to charge the 8 planned for the Palace of Justice, but continues its escalation, marginalizing the arrival of the AVE in our city without a date ". The senator of the PP, Francisco Bernabé, has affirmed that "the PSOE of Sánchez condemns to be the bottleneck of the advance of the railway infrastructures between the Region and Andalusia".
This has been said by the parliamentarian after the approval of the PPRM motion in the Senate, in which the popular have asked that the basic construction project be awarded immediately to carry out the execution of the new platform and underground station in Lorca , accelerating to the maximum the phases and deadlines in this section and to which the PSOE has abstained. Bernabé has stated that "the PSOE de Sánchez has once again condemned Lorca by not betting definitively on an impulse from the AVE and the Corridor by not demanding the Government of Spain specific dates of execution" and "knocking down, in this way, the definitive advance of communications by train taking into account that Lorca is the cornerstone on which rests to reconnect Andalusia by rail with the entire Levante of the peninsula, in such a way that, if there is no Lorca with AVE, there is and will not be the Mediterranean Corridor in Spain " . The senator recalled in his speech in the Upper House that the urban integration project in Lorca received the unanimous applause of all the social and economic agents of the city thanks to the undergrounding of the roads of several kilometers, so that "no It can now say for the government that a new project is going to be done, which nobody has asked for.
" In addition, he insisted that "for two years we have not had the slightest news of it, which will undoubtedly lead to a long delay, added to the fact that the response to the route of the Totana variant is also expected, which also he decided to unilaterally change the socialist government and about which we don't know anything either.
" "Lorca needs the AVE to arrive now", remarked the 'popular' who recalled that "there is a high-speed rail project between Murcia and Almería, done, approved and tendered in all its other sections because it is contemplated in the General Budgets of the State approved by the Popular Party two and a half years ago.
" Likewise, he stressed that "Lorca society has already supported the project of burying the Popular Party, in such a way that they only want to start enjoying as soon as possible the prosperity, work and progress that the AVE and the Corridor will bring, including the essential improvement of the commuter trains with Murcia and Águilas that will come from the hand of high speed ". The president of the PP Lorca Fulgencio Gil, has stated that the government of Pedro Sánchez is a constant bad news against Lorca.
It has not had enough to take away 7.5 million from the IBI bonus to those affected by earthquakes, or to suppress the 3 million planned for investments in districts, or to charge the 8 million planned for the Palace of Justice, but continues his escalation against Lorca, marginalizing without date the arrival of the AVE in our city, the construction of the new San Diego and Sutullena stations and the connection with Almería.
All this was very clear yesterday in the Senate: the PP fighting for the AVE and the underground in Lorca, and the PSOE looking the other way and trying to put an amendment to hide their delays. Faced with all this, we demand that our municipality stop mistreating.
You are fine with delays, false promises and lies.
Pedro Sánchez has loaded all the planning of the Ministry of Development that the Popular Party left made, and that ensured the arrival of the AVE and the underground in Lorca in 2023, and instead of denouncing what is happening, the current mayor laughs at him thanks. The reality is that we will not have a high-speed train, or underground or connection with Almería in several years.
The arrival in Lorca still depends on solving the problem of the Totana variant, which is not even tendered, the burial would not be completed until, at least, 2026, and the connection with Andalusia, as the Table has already calculated in Defense of the Almería Railway, it will not be before 2027. We must remember that the government of Pedro Sánchez has already accumulated almost two years without explaining the technical difficulties that municipal officials detected, and that they forced to extend the distance to be buried to 3.6, since they had not contemplated the existence of a canalization of the transfer under the Rambla de las Señoritas, and the need to save the riverbed of the Guadalentín river with a depth that would provide the necessary safety conditions in case of floods.
The answer has been silence and oblivion. Adif put out to tender in January 2019 the consultancy and technical assistance for the drafting of the basic and platform and station construction projects for the integration of the railway, and has been blocked since then.
The contract has not been awarded.
When it is awarded, a period of 15 months will begin, to which must be added another 10 more for bidding and signing the contract.
To this will be added, in addition, the 36 months of the work.
Total; five and a half years, or what is the same, not before the end of the year 2026. Along with the decline in urban integration, we must add what is happening with sections such as the one that will have to join Lorca and Pulpí, which also accumulates delays; The project has not yet been tendered, which will take a year, to which must be added three years of works.
We are already talking about four years. The marginalization of the PSOE towards Lorca with this issue is scandalous, since instead of complying with the commitments that had already been reached, it has opted to take investments and money to other sites.
This hurts Lorca, because precisely the PSOE, which dismantled the tracks in the 80s when he ruled in Lorca, Murcia and Madrid, has lost the opportunity to compensate at least in part for the damage caused.
