“The government team teases the Imeldo Serís merchants”. This was stated yesterday by the spokesperson for Ciudadanos (Cs) in the Santa Cruz de Tenerife City Council, Matilde Zambudio, who criticized “the slowness with which the works on this central shopping street are being carried out”, as well as that “they are not they have been carried out in sections, not starting one until the previous one was finished, as planned and as promised to the neighbors and businessmen in the area ”.
Zambudio recalled that “the Councilor for Infrastructure, Dámaso Arteaga, has already given half a dozen partial opening dates for this shopping street, failing to comply time and again”. To which he added that “it will be impossible for the works, at the rate they are going, to be finished in October, as Arteaga said at first, nor in December, as he later rectified.” “Traders feel cheated, and rightly fear the possibility of missing another Christmas season,” he said.
“The situation of delays increasingly aggravates the difficult economic situation of the business fabric in the area,” he emphasized.
