Sorry, but I fail to see how more trains can benefit the tourism industry. Train/Tram to the airport yes, the rest of the island I have my doubts. Even buses going to the north of the island are never full, even at the height of the season. But they are when school starts, when most of the younger tourists have left. Stan, I don’t think it would create more employment. It would keep the already employed in a job for longer. Not a bad thing.
'We truly believe that the public sector in some areas of these islands is not up to the level of the private investment that has been made in recent years, and we sincerely believe that we need to do something about it”. Like a decent train service that covers most of the island for example?
Will they create Winter Attractions? Thereby increasing Flights and Hotels availability. Which in turn would create more employment. Also the Railway from Manacor to Arta urgently needs to be completed. Plus the Tram Service must be constructed in Palma and to the Airport.
