Tears By Madrid

I didn’t think that he would come to see this moment. I am referring to the completion of the A-50 between avila and Salamanca, known from the first article I wrote about it, it makes a whopping eleven years. And I’m almost without seeing it, because that impression of finding me facing a new and definitive path, without the double track, works and implausible roundabouts of a few weeks ago I got my eyes and I was on the verge of gluing it to me in a spacious straight. I understand, therefore, that our politicians, probably as excited as I am, flocked to exit the Protocol baseline from the ribbon cutting. There were Jose Blanco, boiler, Silvan, Alejo, Malaga, Jimenez and if did not to the mayors of the two capitals United by the motorway, Julian Lanzarote and Garcia Nieto apart from the small matter of having not been invited because they did not fit in the picture. I understand, also, that led by the excitement of the moment, the Minister of public works say that the A-50 vertebrae region and serves of social cohesion, as if it were a rural path between mountains, which exacted to the residents of towns incommunicado, instead of a fast track to reach as soon as possible Madrid, that is what it is. But it is that every day they say, and is written, many nonsense. Just it make a catalan columnist, to complain that all roads that come to Barcelona are toll and that, instead, Madrid are accessed free of charge.

It is the downside of the victimhood: that aboca to ignorance, because we must pay from avila, linking the motorway with the A-51 there and then with the A-6. In any case, welcome is the splitting of the old N-501, which facilitates the convenient arrival of more visitors from Madrid and allows us to speed up our efforts in the capital. Just need, now, to the density of traffic do good this work of Romans, as the truth is that today the influx of vehicles between Avila and Villacastin is the lowest in Spain. So will have to demonstrate that so many tears shed by better access to Madrid was justified.
