In writing, they have asked that repairs are made to the road in order for it to be safe and present a condition worthy of the city of Yecla.

Izquierda Unida Verdes accuses the Government Team of abandoning the urban part of the Villena Highway, which includes the section from the Matadero Roundabout until the split. They point out, “the apathy has reached an extreme where horizontal signage at some points is confusing and dangerous.”

The leftist group remembers that the Villena Highway is “one of the main entrances into the urban centre with most traffic, and also one of those most frequently used by city visitors.” They believe, therefore, that the “maintenance must be greater in order to improve safety for users and maintain the good appearance of the town.”

Since the training, they’ve stated that, “the horizontal signs are very worn out, and a huge part of the roads hasn’t been painted in years. This has led to that, in some areas, the wear has made it so that delimitation is unclear, or even that some signs almost disappeared. They also maintain that the paint at some zebra crosswalks is so dark it’s a danger for pedestrians.

The report also states that “the lack of maintenance has even led to the appearance of paint from a zebra cross that had been removed and was now visible. This is in contradiction with the other signage that should be present, given the danger that this situation poses”.

According to the group, damage does not only affect the road paint. They comment, “the road is getting fewer streetlights each year as the City Council doesn’t replace them after accidents but only cuts them off and leaves the gap.” They also mention that many vertical signs “are in a bad state of preservation, such as some being completely discolored and some not attached to the ground, while others are reflective signaling devices in poor condition.”

They also report that cleaning the road has not been satisfactory. For example, some parts have had gravel accumulations for quite a while, or in the area of palm trees, there are branches on the road that have not been removed for several weeks.

The City Council is also responsible for the dangerous zebra crossings outside of the urban area, near the roundabouts that lead to the Las Teresas Industrial Estate.

Alberto Martinez is the spokesperson of IU-Verdes and he says that in this sense “all Yeclanos, and Yeclanas, know that with every passing year, the condition of Yecla’s streets worsens. The Government Team, with each passing hour, becomes more incapable to take control of all of Yecla’s streets and, at this rate, the city will be left in a deplorable situation.

The formation also states that, for all of this, they requested that, in writing, the Mayor, “order appropriate repairs to ensure that the road is safe, that it presents an appearance worthy of the city of Yecla and that the road is subjected to regular maintenance to prevent it from returning to its current poor state.
