Carriers warn that “they can’t take it anymore” and urge measures and a drop in fuel prices

The Hiru carriers’ union has urged the Basque, Navarrese and Spanish governments to adopt measures to support a sector that “can’t take it anymore” and lower the price of fuel “quickly, better tomorrow than the 29th“.

Patxi Agirre, spokesperson for the Hiru union, has asked those responsible for the Sánchez Executive “to move quickly or else this is going to burst”. The carriers have carried out this Friday a mobilization with some 200 trucks along the roads of Gipuzkoa protesting before the Provincial Parliament and the headquarters of Adegi in San Sebastián, and have asked the Basque and Navarrese Executives to “work for this sector”, who have been “abandoned for many years”.

“We are going to protest before the Gipuzkoa Councils so that they attend to the demands of the Gipuzkoan transport sector, because they have been neglecting us for many years and the only thing they have worried about is raising our taxes and putting tolls on the roads”, he stressed. , to then recall that the Provincial Council “still owes 600,000 euros to the Gipuzkoa transport sector for the unduly charged tolls on the N-1”.

They have also highlighted that the situation of the sector is unsustainable and that it is not solved only with the drop in fuel prices, which they hope the Council of Ministers will adopt.

On whether they will continue with the mobilizations next week, he has indicated that on Monday they will meet with the Government of Navarra and has asked the Basque Executive to contact them “to find out about the problems of the sector, which has been abandoned for decades.” “That you take us into account,” he has asked.
