The Federation of Construction Entrepreneurs of the Province (Fepeco) criticizes that «Tenerife it is stopped because the queues and traffic jams make any fluid personal or business mobility impossible”. Oscar Left, its president categorically affirms that “the Island no longer supports the road bottlenecks that we suffer every day, at any time and in all geographical areas.” He describes the situation as “unbearable” and, furthermore, indicates that “it has a direct and dangerous impact on people’s health, with somatic and psychological repercussions, verified and confirmed by professionals.”
Izquierdo also points out that the TF-5 “has become the third most important delivery room on the Island, after the University Hospital and La Candelaria due to the cases of child births that occurred for so many years in traffic jams.” In addition, he points out “it creates dangerous distortions for the survival of companies, mainly SMEs and the self-employed, with added millionaire losses in the island’s productive system.”
«We have spent almost forty years –he explains– denouncing this situation until we reached an absolute road collapse in Tenerife for not executing in due time and form, the works specified in the Road Agreements signed between the State and the Autonomous Community, as they have been undertaken and concluded mainly in Gran Canaria».
Fepeco considers that “there is an evident inter-administrative lack of coordination between the different Ministries of the Government of the Canary Islands» and that «the Cabildo de Tenerife is neither seen nor expected, as if it did not exist».
