Ignasi Candela (Més Compromís): "That in 45 years not a single Government of Spain has been able to unite the Valencian and Alicante coasts by train is significant"
The candidacy made up of Compromís y Más País has denounced the state of the rail infrastructure of the Valencian Community this weekend in the Marina Alta, a region of Alicante disconnected from the rail network that connects Alicante with Valencia for 45 years and that only has the car as a means of transport. “We need a government that knows that betting on the train is taking care of the land and making it easier for people who can live their day outside the car”, said the candidate for the Congress of Deputies, Ignasi Candela.
The candidacy has defended this weekend in Dénia -in the assembly of the unblocking and various meetings together with the number 2 of the candidacy, María José García- the commitment to this means of transport to the detriment of others such as "an essential step in the fight against climate change in a territory that is in a climate emergency". "It is one of the biggest challenges we have to face as a society and most of our programmatic proposals will go in that direction.", said Ignasi Candela, who will present next Monday with Llum Quiñonero, candidate for Congress, the Commitment-More Country program to the November 10 elections.
“That in 45 years not a single Government of Spain has known how to connect the Valencian and Alicante coasts by train is significant. And that in the context of the climatic emergency that we suffer, from the Moncloa nobody has advanced in the construction of 30 kilometers of railroad between Dénia and Gandia, not a good future for the citizens of the Valencian Community or for the rest of the State ”, Candela said, thus arguing the need for training in Madrid with a clear ecological vocation.
