The spokesman of the PP in the Regional Assembly, Víctor Martínez has demanded to the Government of Pedro Sanchez that "releases already the 11.3 million euros committed via agreement and budgeted for this year, in order that it can advance the last stretch of the highway RM -1, Zeneta-Santomera ".
"The Region of Murcia can not afford a new delay, a new contempt in communications that are essential for its structure and development," said Victor Martinez who added that "we are before another example of the ninguneo to which the socialists are subjecting the Murcia since Pedro Sánchez occupies La Moncloa ".
The spokesman of the GPP has stressed that "there is a commitment signed on November 6, 2017, between the Autonomous Community and the Ministry of Development, by which the Government of Spain would provide in three years the 110 million euros needed to complete the connection by highway between San Javier and Santomera ".
However, added the popular leader, "despite appearing in the budgets for the 2018 annuity, the socialist government is blocking this action that has cost so much work to resume."
"Another project of interest to Murcia that the socialist Pedro Saura has put in a drawer" said Victor Martinez to claim the PSOE "more facts and less good 'palaces' behind which hide new deceptions to Murcia."
Víctor Martínez has affirmed that the Zeneta-San Javier highway is strategic and essential for the Region as it improves communication with the Mar Menor, will boost the socio-economic development of the area and will improve the access of the companies implanted and their connection with the Mediterranean Corridor, in addition to relieving traffic on the A-30 and the A-7. "
For Diego Conesa, for Pedro Saura and for the PSOE of Pedro Sánchez Víctor Martínez has said "the Murcia Region is inferior to the rest of the autonomous communities, it is a second region and that is how they treat us with complacency, with the favor of politicians regional and with the self-denial in favor of national and other territorial interests that benefit other communities such as Catalonia ", to which he added," is the price that the PSOE has to pay and that suffers the million and a half Murcia "
As explained by the parliamentary spokesman of the PP, the last section of the highway RM-1 has a length of 11.9 kilometers, and its financing is the responsibility of the Ministry of Development whose commitment is to contribute this year 11.3 million, 48, 7 million in 2019 and 50 million in 2020.
