El Norte exige mejores comunicaciones a la Comunidad (Dec 02 2003 20:55 GMT) - Seis alcaldes de otros tantos municipios del Norte-Noroeste han exigido al Gobierno Regional más y mejores infraestructuras de comunicación entre la capital y entre las mismas poblaciones. Es el primero de los planteamientos puesto sobre la mesa en la primera reunión del llamado ‘Consorcio Noroeste-Coronas Metropolitanas’, reunido este lunes en Alcobendas. Dirigido a la mejora de las infraestructuras, los Ayuntamientos han compartido experiencias con localidades de metrópolis como París, Berlín o Londres. El Noroeste tiene ya algunos planes «de vertebración» bajo el brazo. Para ellos se estima una inversión de 1,5 millones de euros, a financiar entre la UE, la CM y los ayuntamientos. |
