On the poor rail connections in the province of Almeria. 

The petitioner complains about the province of Almeria’s poor rail connections, both with the rest of Andalusia and with Madrid. The petitioner is complaining about the slowness of central and regional government, and is also complaining to the European institutions about the slow progress of work on the Mediterranean corridor. The petitioner calls for a reliable, competitive and cost-efficient inter-modal freight and passenger corridor to attract companies, investment and logistics operations, saying that this itinerary is strategic for western Andalusia and for connecting the Iberian Peninsula with the rest of Europe. The petitioner calls for the irrational spending of EU funds on infrastructure to be audited and for priority to be given to the Trans-European Transport core network (TEN-T).
