"Following the news that the internal high-speed network will be the only Iberian gauge Spain, the Ministry of Development has come full circle and finally explained how it will be the model of railway traffic in Galicia since 2016, when completed the new high-speed access to Galicia and has no choice but to switch to wide European or international Atlantic axis. "
Well, that's that" Development has explained "... I think more Development has a good idea, but does not know how to do it.
"In the event that a ports are disconnected from the core network of freight-trains are used for transport-Iberian gauge, the general secretary of the Transport Ministry, José Luis Cachafeiro Monforte, confirmed in Congress that Public Works has completed a study to recover some of the old road of the Atlantic axis and use a third rail in those places where it is not possible to use the original path. In this way, he said, "would ensure the connection of ports in width Iberian '. "
As explained in this blog several times what a way to give out the goods from the ports of Galicia:
- Ferrol and Corunna, through the conventional line-Lugo-Monforte Betanzos (the Palencia-A Coruña)
- Vilagarcía, Marin and Vigo, through the current route to the Atlantic Axis Guillarey, and from there to Ourense. This was possible in principle since from Vilagarcía to the south, the Atlantic Axis high speed was to be built without affecting the current path, and therefore the goods could circulate in the old Iberian gauge tracks. If this does not has done so, he will have to replace the Iberian gauge track where it was been cut.
But what should not do is install a third rail. NOT THE THIRD RAIL. Asymmetric loads, problems in diversions, poor batting ... is a fad. Again, between Vilagarcía and Vigo (Vigo Guillarey because everything is like 100 years ago) is the old road (or platform) virtually intact, so that at points where it has been hit or cut, it should be installed a THIRD WAY WIDTH PARALLEL TO IBERIAN, but never a third rail.
"Cachafeiro said Wednesday before members of the Development Commission that the decision to exploit the internal AVE Iberian gauge is tentative, but recalled that bet on the standard gauge infrastructure would become "an island" and force travelers to make "transfers". "
That's a lie. Do not be obliged to make transfers to ANYONE. There would be only put two wide changers in Ourense and Santiago then used variable gauge trains (as in many parts of Spain). And hopefully temporary.
"The scenario rail the coming years, he explained, is that the axis Ourense-Santiago, A Coruña wide open in Iberian and completely electrified by the end of 2011. In 2013 we will continue this pattern of exploitation to Vigo. And at the end of 2015 would change the entire internal network to standard gauge. "At that point will be able to move within Iberian gauge connecting all ports of the corridor," said Cachafeiro, referring to a project that the Minister of Public Works, José Blanco, submitted shortly. "
We are expectant to this project We must present shortly ... Meanwhile we keep the promises we are doing:
- The Atlantic Axis High Speed \u200b\u200bCoruña-Vigo will be completed in 2013 (we know nothing of Ferrol and extending to Portuguese Frontera)
- At the end of 2015 will change the whole Atlantic and the stretch axis Santiago-Ourense to standard gauge
expect to be met.
"In his speech, indirectly acknowledged Cachafeiro poor planning on the Atlantic axis." Admittedly AVE infrastructure in some sections has crushed the previous "he said."
And if there has been poor planning (finally beginning to recognize it) Galicians have to pay the piper? Are we going to penalize third rail Gallegos instead of enabling a third way? I do not think should be allowed not to carry a new line at those points where the former has been crushed. "(...)
Transportation Secretary General reviewed the plans to connect by rail the external ports of Ferrol and A Coruña, whose projects involve an investment of 200 million euros. "
" On delay that carry these connections, Cachafeiro was clear and strong. "I hope it's the last time in this country things like this happen. It makes no sense to build ports of general interest without having solved the road and rail access. ""
Cachafeiro
This is a horny mind. And again, that Machiavellian situation, a Galician who come to defend the indefensible regarding Galician discrimination. No doubt the disastrous performance of the PP (to approve the construction of 2 external ports unscheduled connections, not to mention the gift he left us with a tracking shit Lubián-Ourense), but what is inexcusable is DOWN about the PSOE has been in power since 2004 (for more than 6 years) and rail access are still not even exist on paper. Player who has 6 years shrews can not give lessons (however wrong they have done the others, who did very bad).
's doubts about the goods (in that way, because to me I still have many doubts) it only remains to clear the doubts of the AVE macrolicitación:
Development see the way clear for the 6,000 million tender AVE before year end
http://www.lavozdegalicia.es/galicia/2010/12/04/0003_8889717.htm
"The president Railway Infrastructure Administrator (ADIF), Antonio González Marín, wanted to conjure up yesterday in A Coruña fears that the Galician AVE macrolicitación suffer further delays that could jeopardize the 2015 deadline. While attending the conference on the future of rail organized by the Colegio de Ingenieros de Caminos de Galicia, González Marín confirmed that before the end of this year will launch the tender for the collaborative project public-private, with a rounded figure of 6,000 million euros at the end, probably stay at 5,800. "
Welcome
will macrolicitación, although occurring after losing a year (NADA year without tender of the Covenant Obradoiro).
"ADIF president confirmed that the Ministry of Finance has not given his placet to the contract documents, but acknowledged that there have been meetings with representatives of the department heads Elena Salgado to resolve any difficulties . "The statement is almost closed, but Treasury has not yet approved the agreement," he said. "
What if the Treasury does not approve the statement? What will happen to Galicia?
"But it seems that is not going to be and its work on the project will be mere technical oversight, especially in regard to funding and a commitment to budgetary stability." Mera
technical supervision ... only go if only to approve the funding and confirm that no commitment to budgetary stability of the country ... only. What
include the macrolicitación 5,800 million?
"It will include a percentage of investment in civil works, something over 3,500 million-the cost maintenance and interest on loans that provide banking and investment funds. "
That is, the work itself, if implemented the work under the State Budget, would cost from 3,500 million. The rest is paid for the maintenance of the infrastructure for 25 years, interest and benefit of investors.
And will there be for such qualified firms challenge?
"Companies, under conditions impose their own financial institutions and the general framework of Development, should provide their own resources at least 20% of the capital. As he sounded somewhere Voice of major construction, companies are "very difficult" to inject high quantities in crisis, although they see the contract as an opportunity. "
I saw so difficult (the funding), but after seeing demonstration of power that has made the Ministry of Development of Lugo José Blanco this weekend with air traffic controllers, and I do not think there's anything that can resist to Pepin.
Well, nothing, nothing is said, because NO. Because the AP-9 has been re-collapse (and we go 2 times since Pepe Blanco is Minister of Public Works) by a snowfall. Luckily Development now will open an investigation:
Development is investigating whether the pavement of the AP-9 is suitable for frost
http://www.lavozdegalicia.es/galicia/2010/12/05/0003_8892180.htm
"Claim to the concessionaire detailed reports on the chaos that hundreds of drivers caught "
" ordered to clarify what were the causes of the second collapse in two years on the highway "
Well, nothing, everybody is happy with these Development certainly get reports that the PA-9 is not Velva to collapse (I wonder what the hell would we do if estviésemos in Central Europe where the wave yes it was cold three pairs ... "Shut down the entire country?)
