05 July 2019 - 14: 04

The Councilor for Citizen Protection, Javier Scotto, together with the Chief Commissioner of the Local Police, José Martínez Espasa, presented this morning the mobility and safety campaign that will be implemented during the summer.

Movement of vehicles more fluid, facilitate the parking of cars and ensure a proper coexistence between neighbors, hoteliers and tourists, are some of the objectives sought by the City and Local Police to achieve with 12 measures that have proposed for it.

Rodaterapia

Among them, highlights the special interest of the consistory to normalize the use of bicycles among citizens as an alternative to avoid traffic and "to be late" to the sites. To that end, the campaign has been presented Rodaterapia, which consists of a webpage in which anyone can see all the information that affects the use of this means of transport. See where the city's bike racks are located and what are the most common infractions, such as crossing the tunnel of the Castle riding the bicycle, are some of the information that can be consulted on the channel.

The configuration of the parking belt has also been presented, offering 2500 free spaces within 10 minutes of any destination; the access signage to the Cova Tallada, which with the current need for reserves is expected to have a reduction in the arrival of vehicles; the Montgó bus line that will be operational from Monday every day of the summer week, with 4 departures in the morning and 4 in the afternoon at €1; and again the "Mou-te per Dénia" campaign with information on traffic, this time supposedly less dense due to the lower number of works that the town is undergoing.

Safety for summer

With regard to the Local Police, the Chief Commissioner has notified the increase of extraordinary services that will make the template, which now adds a new interim for the next 6 months, which will be to strengthen security especially in terms of holidays, weekends and nightlife. They will have special attention with the issue of bottles and noise disturbances that may cause activities during these periods, street vending and traffic conflicts that cause the increase in visitors.

In addition, the maritime surveillance campaign has already been launched to be carried out through the Local Police boat, which will monitor that the marking of the beaches and the regulations of the marine natural reserve, as well as ensuring that the new requirements for access to Cova Tallada are met.

    I've been in 20 for years. Waking up in Les Marines. Arriving at the town in the summer at night becomes complicated, jams and parking lots. Not to mention the lack of bus service. Has anyone thought of putting a night bus service? the jams and something much more important to have to take the car having gone to dinner in the town or leisure areas. Young people have to wait sometimes more than an hour to take a taxi and return to the Marines. At the end they opt for the car with the consequent danger of an accident after a night of partying. If there were a bus in each direction from the 12am to the 7am it would be much safer besides, I do not doubt, profitable.
