The Monte Lope Álvarez Neighborhood Association has registered two documents at the Martos City Council addressed to the utility companies and the Andalusian administration, demanding definitive solutions to the recurring power supply cuts and deficient telephone and internet coverage in the area.
The mayor of Martos, Emilio Torres, has pledged to act as an intermediary between the companies and the Regional Government of Andalusia, acknowledging that the current infrastructure is insufficient. Torres lamented the lack of favorable responses in previous meetings with the Territorial Delegation of Industry, Mines, and Energy, and announced he will request a new meeting for the neighborhood association to directly present their issues and explore the installation of an uninterrupted service.
Sacramento Marcos, president of the neighborhood association, described the situation as "entrenched" after several years of hardship. "Companies should get their act together and do something about it. We can no longer tolerate these daily micro-cuts, which also leave us without phone and internet service," she criticized, urging immediate action.
In parallel, the neighborhood collective delivered approximately 600 signatures to the Territorial Delegation of Sustainability and Environment to demand repairs to the Camino de Granada. Marcos denounced the danger of this drover's road, used by heavy vehicles and connecting two urban centers, pointing out that "sewage water, on the other hand, is exposed."
The mayor emphasized that the repair of drover's roads falls under the jurisdiction of the Regional Government of Andalusia and that, following the storms, only four of the 26 requested roads have been approved for repair. "We will continue to insist," he concluded, hoping for greater receptiveness from the regional administration to resolve the "many problems" that exist.
