Toll In The North And Procedures In 6 Days, First Letter of Garzon


What is today less Bogotá Mayor Luis Eduardo Garzon, is time. For that reason, said yesterday that "at this stage" of his term, when remaining 11 months and 28 days of his four years in office, not time for Advertisements, but to say what was being done. That philosophy seems to apply it began to seek an end to chaos in mobility, today suffer from Bogota (on average spend 53 minutes each way, 5 minutes longer than two years ago, a study of the project "Bogotá, How Come ').

Initially Garzon bet on four points: the toll on the Northern Highway, permanent pedestrianization of a section of the center, a deal with unions to regulate the use of private car and motorcycle, and a more agile in some formalities.

Each of these issues is expected to make them walk in a short time. For example, the permanent pedestrianization of streets 11 and 10, between Carreras 3a. and Tenth, start today. The other three objectives are specified in days or weeks (see boxes).

What is at stake Garzon is clear that the issue of mobility is one of the weaknesses of the administration (along with that of public housing) and that the more you delay the move to Bogota in your workplace or return home or remain traffic chaos daily bread , the main impact will his image and his team.

That is why the measures begin to take the Mayor, And which is expected to take on issues like reviving the old bus chatarrización, besides aiming to Improve the quality of life of Bogota, has another element of substance.

The issue of mobility define the political future of presidential Luis Eduardo Garzon, who begins to become stronger with the achievements in the social field and in managing the district's finances.

Garzon said his administration showed that it can advance to "social policy without jeopardizing fiscal policy. But this list is missing add to it the end of traffic chaos.

For this, the Mayor has not only surrounded by the most trusted people, like Patricia González in the Department of Mobility, or Liliana Pardo, in the Urban Development Institute (IDU).

It has also Intensified to search for strategic partners: the Government on the issue of resources for Phase III of TransMilenio, the Ministry of Transport to toll the Autonorte and unions to self-regulate the use of cars and motorcycles.

It is perhaps the only way to prove in the short time left to wallow in the mobility, the product of administrative reform is not just the 'change of dress' or warning.

However, for academics consulted by TIME, these plans fall short of the magnitude of the problem (see 'These measures are not enough').
