The president of Fepeco, Oscar Izquierdo, celebrated the steps that are being taken in terms of roads. The representative of the builders is “certain that finally the road works that Tenerife demand, socially, territorially and economically, can be a reality in the medium term, due to the intense work, which is known to be being done, jointly, by both the Government of the Canary Islands as of Tenerife Councilalso unblocking the difficulties encountered in making the construction and operation of the roads feasible.
Izquierdo highlights that they are “working in coordination so that the execution of the works moves forward in time as much as possible, providing professional suggestions, as well as decisive and possible proposals.” And he continued: «We are clear that it is not about filling the Island with cement and asphalt, as is maliciously said by the deniers of no to everything, but about undertaking the implementation of those basic and structural roads that make it possible to territorially unify the island. Island, make it more compact, with safe and fast mobility,” he says.
“This fruitful public-private collaboration, which is being developed with the utmost trust on both sides, will surely see positive results sooner rather than later, being an example of the unity of action that the Island requires and that we repeatedly ask for from Fepeco,” says its president.
“The Island must be structured with an efficient, safe and sustainable network,” says Óscar Izquierdo.
The Deputy Minister of Infrastructure of the Government of Canary IslandsFrancis Gonzalez, thanked Fepeco for its “total and absolute willingness to jointly carry out the projects that Tenerife needs; and always with the greatest environmental respect. And he adds: “The Department of Public Works is aware of the efforts we have to make to meet the challenges and objectives that Tenerife society demands.”
Traffic solutions
«Since the beginning of the mandate, the current Government of the Canary Islands is aware that, without looking back, we have the great commitment to achieve solutions as soon as possible to the traffic problems that the citizens they endure daily,” says González in relation to the challenges that must be resolved during the next years of the legislature. «The challenges are inescapable; both in terms of building the necessary road infrastructure and in decisively betting on sustainable, accessible and intelligent mobility.
In the opinion of Francis González, «facing the challenges that the future holds for us is an exciting commitment that requires responsibility, the sum of will and maximum efforts; and putting the general interests of the Island above any other personal, partisan or ideological circumstance. Tenerife begins a new stage in which facts and realities will prevail.
