Well, this is nothing. Last year, in March (presumably before he knew there would be cuts in infrastructure investment) Development Minister José Blanco had asserted that the A-8 was completed in 2011 ( http://www.lavozdegalicia. es/galicia/2010/03/07/0003_8339018.htm ).
So fingers crossed that the Minister of Public Works again not retract.
"Development Minister, José Blanco, has confirmed that the next year will complete the entire course of the Cantabrian motorway motorway (A-8) as it passes through Galicia, which has invested 464 million euros in infrastructure. "
" "We will be able to give the economic boost additional year for these works gained momentum again and allow to complete the layout of the entire A-8 in Galicia in the coming year, "said the owner of Development."
So they have invested 464 million euros ... let's see what the website says ofcial de Fomento ( http://www.fomento.es/NR/rdonlyres/afcee952-4ce2-4751-ba71-cd430d55b931/98717/11020402.pdf ):
" With the commissioning This section eliminates the oldest route N-634 in Galicia, which dates from the beginning of the eighties and, therefore, that had the worst stretches of curves. Also, bear daily traffic intensities of around 10,000 vehicles, with a percentage of 17% heavy vehicles, and traffic spiked to 12,000 summer day environment. "
" Road safety is therefore substantially improve the removal of this stretch of the N-634. In addition, three tranches avoid concentration of accidents. "
" This is a key infrastructure for connecting trans Galicia transport and the Cantabrian (...)"
reviewing the data: IMD over 10,000 vehicles, winding route of the early 80's, 3 accident concentration sections, key infrastructure in the communication of Galicia the Cantabrian ... TO MEET ALL REQUIREMENTS TO BE A PRIORITY WORK!
For the Government of Spain never was. The facts speak for themselves (in the note by the Ministry of Development):
"As for funding, to December 31, 2010 the Government of Spain had already allocated EUR 464.6 million to highway construction in Galicia. In total, investment total Ministry of Public Works in the highway amount to more than 657 million euros. These funds were first allocated in the year 2004 (until then only 5.9 million had been contributed to the A-8 in Galicia by way of expropriation and technical assistance). "
is, that from 2004 to 2010 ( 7 years) the Government of Spain has only been able to allocate 460 million euros (460 million / 7 years = 65 million per year).
IS THIS THE EXECUTION OF A RHYTHM OF PRIORITY INFRASTRUCTURE?
HAVE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO INVEST 65 MILLION A YEAR!
But what is even more poignant is that the Government of Spain has not even had to put all the money, because as admitted in the press release Promotion:
"The work has been funded by the ERDF European Union. "
Touch your balls. And how much European funding has risen? Well do not say, perhaps to avoid dislodging their heads in shame because these works tend to have a 65% funding (ie the Ministry of Public Works Joseph White has probably only 35% of the 460 M € December that they have invested since 2004).
And while the still stunned and Galician agilipollada our political caste.
And year after year tell us NEXT YEAR HIGHWAY ENDS.
And as usual, and spent 2008, 2009 and 2010. And in 2011 tell us that in 2012 (8 years to 85 km of highway !!!!!!!!!). And nothing happens here.
It has been 7 years since the start of construction in 2004. And this is the sad result: only 53 km opened to traffic (by the way, interesting map of the Cantabrian motorway A-8 posted in the Web Development):
all keeps (almost) equal .
