· The delegate of the Government, Pilar Bernabé, together with the mayor of Sedaví, José Francisco Cabanes, visit section 1 of the metropolitan Green Ring, on the occasion of the Day Without Cars
The delegate of the Government in the Valencian Community, Pilar Bernabé, together with the mayor of Sedaví (València), José Francisco Cabanes, visited the part of section 1 of the metropolitan Green Ring that runs through this town. In the visit, framed within the framework of the Day Without Cars that is celebrated in the European Week of Mobility, the delegate has valued the more than 287 million euros that the Government of Spain has allocated to the Comunitat to low emission projects.
Bernabé has highlighted the “investment effort of the Government that, through the mechanism of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan (PRTR), is betting directly on promoting and promoting sustainable mobility. And it does it through direct transfers to municipalities, as in the case of Sedaví, so that it can start the Green Ring project. Or also through transfers to the Generalitat Valenciana”.
“In total in the Valencian Community the Government has invested more than 287 million euros for sustainable mobility and especially for low-emission projects. Of this total investment, 167 million correspond to transfers to the Generalitat and more than 125 million have been transferred directly to the municipalities, where the large cities have received part of that subsidy. For example, València”.
In this regard, the delegate explained that the Valencian capital in a first call has received 44 million euros for low emissions projects, and in the second call has obtained 19.5 million.
And added that large cities “have a challenge with low emissions to reduce CO2 production. And today is a day in which we must remember it and warn that denial discourses in certain spaces have no place. We cannot go back on an issue that is more than accepted and where there is an international consensus, such as Agenda 20-30.”
Bernabé insisted that “low emission zones are one of the priority commitments of the Government of Spain and a country objective to meet the objectives of Agenda 20-30 with the reduction of emissions as one of our priorities”.
Finally, the delegate of the Government pointed out that “all the sustainable mobility and low emissions projects that are underway in our Comunitat, with more than 287 million euros, it is essential to carry them forward. Make them in time and form. And certain administrations that have that monetary availability to carry them forward must strive to develop them and avoid the loss of those funds.”
