Pedro Sánchez visited this Sunday the development works of the B-40 motorway tunnel, between the municipalities of Olesa de Montserrat and Viladecavalls, in a present of dedication to this undertaking. If the street just isn't constructed, it won't be on account of an absence of will on the a part of the central administration. That was the message.
And the very fact is that the way forward for the B-40 – one in all ERC's commitments to get PSC help for the budgets – is up within the air as a result of lack of expertise between the central government and the Generalitat. Each admit that the negotiations are caught, to the purpose that they've already entered a part of reproaches.
The Authorities agreed to unblock the undertaking, which ERC has traditionally opposed, with an settlement that set a deadline of March 31 to signal the settlement with the Ministry of Transport to construct it. The deadline has handed, and now there are vital discrepancies between the 2 events.
The Ministry of Transport and the Division of Land differ on just about the whole lot relating to the B-40. As for the street mannequin – city street or motorway –; with regard to financing - the Authorities doesn't need the 200 million required to go to the third further provision -; relating to the coordination of the undertaking - the Catalan Government desires to exclude the central Authorities -, and even relating to the ultimate objective of the route of the street.
The state of affairs makes the ministry query the actual will of the Catalan Authorities to unblock the work they usually have the impression that it's already wonderful for them to stay caught.
Thus, the Minister of Transport, Raquel Sánchez, and the Minister of Territories, Juli Fernández, publicly confirmed yesterday the distancing of their positions. Sánchez alluded to a "obligatory infrastructure" on which "we proceed to work" and solely dropped the necessity for his staff to take part within the "technical monitoring" of the undertaking. "On the a part of the ministry, no drawback", she went as far as to say, however after listening to the intervention of councilor Fernández, who underlined each one of many discrepancies that separate them, the minister modified her tone.
The councilor referred "to the phrases" of the funds settlement, which alludes to the "Ronda Nord undertaking between Terrassa, Sabadell and Castellar del Vallès". In his opinion, this interprets into "an interurban street" and "not a high-capacity street", because the central authorities desires. As well as, the councilor warned that the third further provision of the Statute "just isn't an actual technique to finance it", as proposed by the ministry, and requested for "one other manner of financing".
The third further provision established that for 5 years, after the approval of the Statute, the State would put money into Catalonia the load akin to its GDP and, in case it didn't achieve this, it might present the cash for the Generalitat to do the works
After listening to the minister, the minister took the ground once more to spotlight the failure to adjust to the deadline of the funds settlement and regretted that there's an try and exclude the ministry from the coordination of the undertaking.
The Ministry of Transport remembers that the Authorities didn't transfer till March 1, a month after the pact with the PSC, and that they don't want the street to be prolonged. "They need it to finish right here - in Sabadell - however the Vallès mobility plan doesn't deny its doable continuity and we aren't ready to mortgage the realm's mobility", they are saying.
The reproaches to the Catalan Authorities for having "leaked" the negotiations deserve a separate chapter. "They're those - they allege to Transports - who've breached" two agreements, the one on budgets and the one on confidentiality of negotiations.
