Several readers have contacted La Voz to report the poor functioning of public transport in Arrecife and the traffic light breakdowns in the capital.
According to one of them, the buses in Arrecife are of "an expert level of patience". "If you work in Arrecife and depend on the municipal buses, good luck... a lot of luck," he continues.
In this regard, the user assures that "the bus for **Line 1 passes every hour or hour and a half**. Ideal if you want to be late for work or not arrive at all."For its part, "Line 3 at 2:00 PM, during rush hour, they put a mini bus and **we're packed in like sardines** and they leave people stranded at the stop. But hey, it's all very ecological. Sometimes they don't even leave you stranded due to overcrowding, but because the bus runs out of battery."In addition, he also expresses his anger over the **processing of Canary Islands resident cards**. "At the bus station it takes you three minutes and at the City Hall up to a month... selective efficiency," he saysTherefore, he calls for "more buses, better schedules, and respect for the working citizen because Arrecife doesn't need miracles, it needs management".
On the other hand, criticism is also directed at the **broken traffic lights in the capital**. "The traffic light at the exit of Arrecife is used by hundreds of students heading to Las Salinas high school and the Zerolo school... many cars don't stop and any day a tragedy will happen to one of those students and Mayor Yonathan de León will be responsible," states another resident."Stop wasting so much public money on parties and more parties and fix things. What kind of city do we live in where the only priority is parties... for God's sake!", he concludes.
