bus stop in the Nuevo Horizonte Industrial Estate The Cabildo of Fuerteventura has put into service the first bus stop in the Nuevo Horizonte Industrial Estate, in the municipality of Antigua, according to a press release sent to Radio Sintonía. The new infrastructure responds to a historical demand from workers, companies and users of public transport. The first bus stop in the Nuevo Horizonte Industrial Park comes into operation. The president of the Cabildo, Lola García, highlighted that this action improves road safety, accessibility and comfort for people who use interurban transportation. In addition, he stressed that the Corporation’s objective is to bring the service closer to the points with the highest demand on the island. The new stop began operating on Monday, July 13, once the platform conditioning work and the installation of the canopy were completed. From this point, lines 13, 16 and conventional line 3 provide service. The Minister of Transport, Luiso González, recalled that until now the industrial estate lacked a stop inside, which made access to public transport difficult in one of the main commercial areas of Fuerteventura. Both Lola García and Luiso González thanked the Antigua City Council for its collaboration in expediting the authorizations that have allowed this infrastructure to be launched. The Cabildo recalls that this action is part of its strategy to improve mobility on the island, which includes the renewal of 50% of the bus fleet, the increase in frequencies, the creation of new lines and the maintenance of free public transport. The first bus stop in the Nuevo Horizonte Industrial Park comes into operation.
