In addition, and as they did a year ago, demand that a final solution to the dangerous crossing of the Caravaca Road with the Swamp Road in the vicinity of La Peñica and urbanize this last route to the ship of the Incarnate Pass.

The Municipal Socialist Group, through its councilman David Romera, has asked the Government team of the Popular Party in the City of Lorca to include the Barrio Corazón de María and the axis of the Carretera de Caravaca in the Urban Regeneration Plan Is currently being executed thanks to the loan granted by the European Investment Bank and which imports 165 million euros for the reconstruction of the city after the earthquakes of 2011.

Romera believes that "this request is for territorial and social justice, since this important urban area has been excluded by the Government team in the Urban Regeneration Plan," which will mean that "is left out, completely removed from the process Of modernization that are practically experiencing all neighborhoods of Lorca despite being located around one of the main accesses to the city from Caravaca and the A-7.

The Edil indicates that "Lorca is currently at a vital crossroads, a unique opportunity after the catastrophe, to be reborn as a new city, both in the urban center and in all its neighborhoods, without distinction," and believes it necessary "That the Government team is willing to accept this proposal to design and undertake the urban regeneration of both Barrio Corazón de María and the Carretera de Caravaca and to satisfy the aspirations of its neighbors."

The socialist councilor said that in the neighborhood Corazón de María, located between the Carretera de Caravaca and the Rambla Salada, "live more than 500 neighbors, who are considered as Lorca as those who live in the center of the city and also they have The right to see the infrastructures of his neighborhood modernized. "

In addition the population "is getting old because the neighborhood is not attractive to attract young families to the lack of services and equipment, to which the important industrial presence is united".

Romera argued that "the inclusion of Corazón de María and the Caravaca Road in the Urban Regeneration Plan of Barrios is necessary in the face of the shortcomings that this area presents: almost all of the streets do not have sidewalks or pedestrian crossings, pavement In many of them it is in poor state of conservation and with socavones, it is necessary to install new points of public illumination by being many zones of shade during the night as well as to request to the company Iberdrola the elimination of the turrets of high tension located next to the Housing, road signs are missing, car parking is not limited, there are more green areas, street furniture, a rainwater drainage network and there is a need to renovate those old and inefficient water supply and sewerage infrastructures. "

That is to say, it is a neighborhood that, as it is at present, "is unpalatable to live", which becomes the main demand of most of the neighbors.

Its financing, given that it is a small area of ​​action, "would be in charge of the casualties that have been produced in the processes of awarding works in other neighborhoods of Lorca."

The PSOE again demands the PP the settlement of the entrance to Lorca by the Carretera de Caravaca

David Romera says that in the same situation is the urban area of ​​the Carretera de Caravaca, which despite being one of the main access to the city with privileged views of the Castle of Lorca "offers a mediocre and desolate aspect, unfit for a Modern city with aspirations to become a major tourist destination, "and therefore encourages the Government team to include this axis in the Regeneration Plan" to make this access a dignified and attractive access that encourages private initiative for its reconversion In a new residential area and future.

In this sense, Romera recalled that now a year ago that "from the Municipal Socialist Group we demand a solution to the dangerous crossing between the roads of Caravaca and the Pantano, for which we ask the creation of a roundabout with pedestrian crossings regulated by traffic lights with Pulsador "and" the integral urbanization of the Swamp Road to the ship of the Pass Incarnate ", not having begun yet works that are considered" of first necessity to guarantee the security of the neighbors of the zone and those who use the facilities Of the Passage Incarnate, especially the children who are going to rehearse with their bands of drums and horns ".
