The Regional Minister of Development, Territory Planning and Housing, Roc\u00edo D\u00edaz, and the Moj\u00e1car Mayor, Francisco Garc\u00eda, have inaugurated the municipality\u2019s new bus station, which has been received by the Local Council, which from now on will be in charge of its management and maintenance.
\nThe Junta de Andalucia has invested 653,421 euros in the construction of a transport interchange that \u201cwill bring together all the interurban transport offer in Moj\u00e1car, whether in summer or winter\u201d, the regional minister stated, who gave a reminder of the tourism pulling-power of a municipality which sees its population multiply during the summer period.
\nRoc\u00edo D\u00edaz expressed her satisfaction at \u201cpaying off a historical debt of the Junta with this municipality\u201d and with this resolve \u201cthe existing deficiencies in public transportation with a functional building.\u201d Likewise, she showed her appreciation for the close collaboration at all times between the Junta and the Local Council that has made these facilities possible.
\nevery moment between the Board and the City Council that has made this equipment possible. The regional minister indicated that these facilities seek \u201cthe inter-modality that we are always looking for to promote public transportation\u201d, since it has a taxi rank, four bays for metropolitan buses and a fifth bay for the urban bus service. \u201cAll with the idea of looking for more sustainable mobility,\u201d the regional minister stated.
\nFor his part, the Moj\u00e1car Mayor expressed satisfaction with the construction of an interchange that \u201cwill cover the demand of our residents and visitors.\u201d \u201cUntil today we have not had a central point to deal with all arrivals and departures from Moj\u00e1car,\u201d the mayor said, who thanked the Andalucian Government for its commitment, not only to the bus station, but to the development of other infrastructure, such as the health centre and the bypass.
\nMoj\u00e1car, with nearly 7,000 inhabitants, increases its population to 40,000 inhabitants in summer. More than 40 bus trips usually stop in the Almeria municipality, a number that has increased on some routes in the summer period
\nsummer, given its tourist character. Despite the large volume of travellers, it did not until now have a specific facility to serve the public transport offer. The
\nintercity buses stop at various points distributed throughout the municipality. The main one is called La Fuente and is located on Avenida de Andalucia, near the junction with Camino Huertas de las Parras.<\/p>\nFollowing an agreement between the Local Council and the Junta de Andaluc\u00eda, the bus interchange is located on a municipally owned plot of 5,607sqm on the
\nAvenida de Andaluc\u00eda (AL-6111), which is the road that connects the historic centre of the municipality with its coastal development. In addition, it has a good connection with the Moj\u00e1car bypass and offers a direct exit to the Mediterranean Dual Carriageway (A-7).
\nThe station, which has had co-financing from the European FEDER funds, has a large esplanade for four 15-metre-long bus bays, as well as an operations building where the offices, lockers and toilets are located. Said building is single-storey, rectangular in shape, 5 x 10 metres, and has services for
\nproviding a comfortable wait for the user. The bus bays\u2019 waiting esplanade, as well as having street furniture, has been equipped with a metal open canopy that creates a shaded area on the whole esplanade.
\nDue to the unevenness of the plot, it has been necessary to build several retaining walls of reinforced concrete on its limit with the AL-6111 road, the
\nheight of which varies throughout the entire layout, depending on the difference in the level between the interchange esplanade and the road. Likewise, on the opposite side of the esplanade, where it borders the Campos watercourse, a gabion wall has been built to retain the esplanade along its entire perimeter with the Campos watercourse.
\nRoc\u00edo D\u00edaz recalled that the station itself had been built months before by the company Construcciones Nila, but that before handing it over a series of authorisations for energy and water supply had to be resolved. After resolving these issues, the regional minister and the mayor have also signed the transfer of the facilities to the local authority so that it contracts the necessary services for its maintenance and management. In the meantime, the Local Council will progressively put the facilities into service.
\nThe regional minister and the mayor attended the inauguration of the new facilities accompanied by the Junta de Andaluc\u00eda\u2019s Government Delegate in Almer\u00eda, Aranzazu Mart\u00edn; the general director of Transport Infrastructure, Eduardo Gutierrez; the general director of Road Infrastructure, Alfonso Lujano, and the Territorial Development, Territory Planning and Housing delegate in Almer\u00eda, Dolores Mart\u00ednez Utrera.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":".The Regional Development Minister, Roc\u00edo D\u00edaz, visits facilities that have been built with an investment of more than 600,000 euros […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":21637,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"rs_blank_template":"","rs_page_bg_color":"","slide_template_v7":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[34,32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21651","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-actualidad-en","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21651","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21651"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21651\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21651"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21651"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mojacar.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21651"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
