Manuel Pizarro
The proposal is from the arrival but Manuel Pizarro will advance with this solution, if the PS wins. The reaction to your left was immediate.
Candidates from the main parties to the presidency of Porto City Council They were at the same table. Between housing, security or other matters, there were more “hot” reactions when talking about transit e mobility.
The internal waistway (VCI) It is an obvious problem in the city. .
O He arrives said, more than a month ago, that a way to have fewer vehicles – heavy, in this case – to circulate in VCI would be Put in gondomar the Porto Supply Market. For two heavy that occupy the VCI towards the place.
The subject was recovered in this debate at. The candidate of arrives, Miguel Corte-Real, explained: “Let’s take this equipment, which needs to be renewed, and we will relocate it. It will take away thousands of VCI trucks daily. It will not solve all problems but will start to help solve it. ”
Manuel Pizarrocandidate for PS, He likes this proposal: “I will enjoy all the good ideas (if elected). Look, the idea of removing the city’s supply market and putting it in Gondomar is a beautiful idea. It is not on my program, look, I will enjoy it”.
The reactions to your left were immediate. Diana Ferreira (CDU) began to laugh; Sérgio Aires (Left Block) repeated: “Don’t do that! Don’t do that!” “Ahead he explained why he doesn’t agree.”
The arrival estimates that 20% of the heavy that circulate in VCI go to Supplier market. Sérgio Aires, candidate for the Left Block, has a very different perception.
“Nor 1% of trucks that walk at VCI go to the supply market. They are very few. It makes no sense to take the market from there, which is an asset to the city, which everyone is happy, there is no one to criticize its location. It won’t reduce traffic at all! ”Sérgio Aires said.
Pedro Duarte, candidate of the PSD/CDS/IL coalition, goes the other way: take the tolls from A41 and put tolls on the two extremes of VCI – But just for heavy.
The CDU would also take the tolls of A41 and have another focus: Restrict the circulation of TVDE vehicleswith specific areas and times. “We don’t even have concrete numbers of their circulation in the city,” said Diana Ferreira.
