The chaos that occurs in the vicinity of the entrance to the Timanfaya National Park "is generating discomfort and anger among the residents of the municipality of Tinajo", the PP acknowledges. "Who wonder how long they will have to endure those long lines of cars, which hinder the fluidity of traffic and are a major road hazard." "Until now we have been very lucky and there has been no accident, but we must not wait for something serious to happen to take the appropriate measures,” says Ramón Ortiz, PP candidate.
And, "the situation of access to this tourist center has become quite complicated in recent months due to the increase in the number of tourists arriving in Lanzarote," he acknowledges. "Being totally collapsed in specific periods as happened during the past Easter Week," he adds.
"The Government has become comfortable with the situation and a more committed attitude is missing"
“The reality is that the municipal government seems to have become comfortable with the situation and a more committed attitude towards the feelings of the residents is missing, in order to demand a viable solution from the Cabildo.” “We only see that months and years pass, and everything remains the same,” says Ortiz.
Within the electoral program for the elections next May, the Popular Party "has among its main projects to give a definitive solution to the concentration of vehicles at the entrance of the National Park" and for this, "proposes to use municipal land in the creation of an alternative parking where, in addition to being able to buy tickets, a shuttle bus service to the Islote de Hilario is established," they confirm.
"The City Council has been beating around the bush for many years and we don't see any progress"
For the Populars this measure "would have a positive impact on the local economy" because "the space could have a diverse gastronomic and leisure offer" to "enable an active wait for visitors and jobs for residents," he acknowledges.
"The City Council has been beating around the bush for many years and we don't see any progress" says Ramón Ortiz to emphasize that "the PP in Tinajo will not throw in the towel until they see that objective fulfilled in the shortest possible time."
