FMT complaint further cuts in routes and services

The restructuring of the services associated with the new planning council, and the tram line 2, is penalizing the use of the bus by a serious increase in discomfort for the user.

Mobility Forum Metropolitan Area, which increasingly involved neighborhood associations and organized groups concerned with the problems associated with mobility, denounces the serious situation being faced by users of the buses to the restructuring and new cuts raised by the Cabildo de Tenerife.


Line 105 (Santa Cruz, Punta del Hidalgo): This line, which initially was traveling from the northeastern suburbs to Santa Cruz, had the first cut when the service was removed to Santa Cruz on the weekends, and forcing users to make a change at La Laguna. However, the situation has worsened recently when the council decided to extend this cut to the last two buses (21:00 and 21:30) that circulate during the week. From now on, users who need to travel to Santa Cruz, sometimes for transshipment to other towns or other municipalities, and in many cases, move to the Northeast for work, must get off at La Laguna and make a new transfer.

This is serious as the problems of discomfort which is to find a new means of transportation during the night, with cold, insecurity, and reducing lines and frequencies on all lines, and by the increase in costs .

Southeast: services were being suspended about 2 tram line, such as 013 and 237, among others, following the new restructuring. For those that go beyond the tram line towards the southeast to the height of the road, the average wait for a bus has now grown to about forty minutes on weekends and thirty during the week, several lines changing routes and shuttle stops.

This also is associated with a serious lack of information so that users often find that your line is suspended when, after a long wait, they realize that their bus passes will no longer stop at which are, or frequency has changed.

addition, services have been deleted in the villages, as reinforcements in Candelaria.

Disaster planning: Mobility Forum also denounced the council's poor planning, as demonstrated on many occasions, but especially in dates such as recently occurred on the day of San Juan. That day, he maximum coverage in The Teresitas, accompanied by a lavish advertising service, which proved a major success as hundreds of people decided to use public transport. However, as has happened before, not given continuity to the service in Santa Cruz, and the thousands of people were trapped in the station, because it was not enough buses to get close to their neighborhoods. This led to fights, protests and acts of vandalism.

addition, the tram started operating at the usual time, but much later.

Such situations occur steadily since TITSA powers were assumed by the council, as always foreseen TITSA services in the festivities. This also occurred in the pilgrimage of Tegueste or Carnival Day of Santa Cruz.

To solve these problems, the Forum calls upon the citizens to claim their rights by submitting complaints individually or through their AAVV, because in this way shall register the discontent that does not normally be reflected in any document to "bring the red face "to the competent authorities.
