Ibagué’s birthday girl was left dressed and rowdy by her rulers. With nearly three years in office in tow, the pile of promises they had made to the people of Ibaguereños that would have meant precious gifts for the city ended up being an open and brazen mockery that confirms their ability to lie in order. to get there to power. This Musicabile did not appear, not even some studies and drawings to hide the fact that one day there was interest in making it. Nor was the much-vaunted 60th Street viaduct, for which full studies had finally not been achieved, but a heavy credit had been drawn up before the Council to finance it. Furthermore, the complementary aqueduct that they received at a very advanced stage was not built, with some works in progress to connect it to the La Pola power plant, not even the famous purification plant that they should have built for the southern districts, a ‘ other scam. The fifth avenue that had been announced from the beginning of the mandate as the project that would “change the face” of the main avenue of the city, but of which the first stone has not even been seen. The same thing happened with the non-existent adaptation of the Centenary Park, after the criticisms for having announced some abominable works that would have put an end to natural life in that lung of the city, they said they had reformulated the project, even so, not even the Battered Acoustic shell cover also received a little hand.
Road 103 has not been reached either, the stretch that the mayor delivered with great fanfare barely represents about 13% of the more than 5 kilometers long this road must have to connect Ambalá with the expansion zone and become a real solution for the chaotic mobility of the city, the category of the road has even been reduced to the point of rejecting the dual carriageway project to simply build it; Had they had the will, they could have invested the resources that were freed up from the improvised costs of other projects, to continue their construction beyond Fifth Avenue, trying to truly materialize this road project that Ibagué so desperately needs. Of the race 13 or environmental axis, which goes from Calambeo to Cañaveral and which the Governor and the Mayor have promised to build together, of that if we do not speak, pure straw.
The announcements to make the implementation of the Strategic Public Transport System a reality have remained just that, in pure announcements: neither the modernization of traffic lights, nor the alleged new fleet of buses, nor the restoration of the main road corridors, nor a stop of the ‘bus built and except for none of the urban terminals covered by the project, nothing at all.
Birthdays don’t even cover the gaps, something that really has those of us traveling through the city’s road network in despair and putting cyclists and motorcyclists at permanent risk.
The Governorate and Cortolima reported less on this Ibagué birthday, just over a year after finishing their term they don’t have a work to show in the capital city of Tolima even though they were enthusiastic about a Bartist triumvirate that would presumably transform the city.
Let’s make the region and support ours!
