The Driving Committee of the Citizen Platform (CDPC), revealed that the Public Petition “YES! Beja Airport is part of the solution” already exceeds two thousand signatures and is already registered and accepted by the Petitions Service of the Assembly of the Republic.
The CDPC considers that “it is necessary, now, exceed the required number of signatures, for it to be debated by the Plenary of the Assembly of the Republic as, despite the favorable studies for the essential railway variant that should connect the Alentejo Line to Beja Airport (n.d.r.: Civil Terminal Beja)", held by Infraestruturas de Portugal IP, the truth is that the execution projects of the same are not contemplated in the planned investments nor in the PNI 2030 – National Investment Plan until 2030 nor in the PRR-Recovery and Resilience Plan.
The Driving Committee of the Citizen Platform, justifies that he is “aware of the need to take the Plenary of the Assembly of the Republic to re-analyze this situation, is sending a message to economic institutions and organizations, social, cultural and sports, to inform and mobilize the citizens they represent so that they understand that this is not just another Petition, but the Petition that can decide and, so you must subscribe.
Remember that the citizen platform that defends Beja International Airport (n.d.r.: Civil Terminal Beja)", revealed that the Independent Technical Commission (CTI) will visit the Alentejo airport infrastructure, at the end of this month, to assess their conditions on the ground. CTI's visit to this airport infrastructure should take place on 27 or in the day 28 this month and the citizen platform was invited to accompany the work of technicians, revealed a CDPC member.
