The City of Dénia held, on Monday night, December 23, the Ordinary Municipal Plenary corresponding to the month of December. The plenary had a controversial point. It was item 7 of the agenda in which the allegations to the informative study of the Valencia-Alicante railway line, Tren de la Costa, Gandia-Oliva-Dénia section were treated. A section that obtained the approval of all political parties but that its position was totally contradictory to that exposed by CEDMA (Cercle Empresari of the Marina Alta) in which they propose that the terminal be located in Ondara and that of other groups in the region.
To reaffirm their decision, the spokespersons of each political formation read a joint institutional statement in favor of the train, explaining their reasons why Dénia should have this station. Vicent Grimalt, mayor of Dénia, put the situation of the Tren de la Costa in context, from Gent of Dénia, mario vidal, read that the station must be located in Dénia due to the volume of passengers and territorial structure. Susana Mut from Ciudadanos, mentioned the connection of Dénia with the Balearic Islands and the large number of tourists that it gathers in summer, as well as the line with Alicante.
From the popular ranks, María Mut, He stated that it is profitable and the figures of the study of the University of Alicante do not coincide with those of the Ministry. Rafa Carrió de Compromís It was maintained that one already existed in Dénia and that being in Dénia is not incompatible with having others in other towns.
To finalize the institutional declaration, from the PSPV, Maria Josep Ripoll, indicated that the controversy between different groups and the lack of consensus does not help in the fight for this infrastructure.
Let us serve as an example what happened with the AVE station, which due to divergences between Utiel and Requena, in the end it was done in the middle of nowhere and now not for trains. Eye with the short-term politicians.
And don't forget the Maritime Station …… that Gandía is the alternative.
