On Tuesday, Minister of Transport and Sustainable Mobility Scar Bridge announced the approval of an informative study for the high-speed railway section from Castejón (Navarra) to Logroo. The minister emphasized the importance of the high-speed connection to La Rioja and mentioned that all sections between Zaragoza and Miranda de Ebro are either in execution, study, or project.
The informative study for the Zaragoza-Castejón section is currently in progress, which will reduce travel times to La Rioja by 30 minutes. Additionally, a feasibility study is being developed to enhance the corridor between Logroo and Miranda de Ebro. Construction on the Rincón de Soto bypass is also continuing with a budget of 65 million euros.
The controversy surrounding a new direct railway connection between Logroo and Madrid through Miranda de Ebro was also referenced by the minister. Despite criticism from the Rioja president, the new service provides an additional 3,200 direct train seats per week between Logroo and Madrid.
Senator Scar addressed various transportation issues faced by La Rioja, including the lack of a direct highway to Madrid, long train journey times, and limited flight options. The senator plans to meet with Minister Bridge to discuss these issues further.
In other news, various forums and online discussions are focusing on topics related to gaming licenses, online gambling, cryptocurrency licensing, and Twitch streaming. These discussions cover a wide range of topics from obtaining licenses for various industries to enhancing online gaming experiences.
In conclusion, there has been significant progress made in developing high-speed rail connections across Spain’s northern regions. However, challenges remain in terms of transportation infrastructure and connectivity within these regions. As such, it is crucial that policymakers continue to address these issues through collaborative efforts such as those planned between Senator Scar and Minister Bridge.
