The president of the Generalitat, Carlos Mazón, has stressed that the Alicante TRAM central station “is finally going to be a reality” after learning that the central government has given its approval to the transfer of the land necessary to execute this infrastructure to Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat Valenciana (FGV).
For Carlos Mazón this is “a very important moment for everyone after many years with this issue blocked” and he has highlighted the Consell's effort with the negotiations with the central government to achieve the transfer of the land.
Furthermore, he has stressed that the regional government will maintain ownership of these lands after the years of transfer. Thus, he has stated that "these lands will remain in the Valencian Community in such a way that there will be an Intermodal station, there will be a central station."
Likewise, he made reference to the 135 million euro investment in the project for the future central TRAM station in Alicante and pointed out that "they will contribute to boosting the mobility of the entire province so that citizens can have access once and for all the TRAM they deserve.” Likewise, he has indicated that the roadmap is that the works can begin after the summer.
Likewise, he has reiterated the Valencian government's commitment to sustainable mobility and quality public transport.
