The patience of Duñana María Luisa Goikoetxea is exhausted with Renfe and returns to the path of denunciation. In fact, this week he met with three PNV senators to discuss the accessibility situation in line C-3 in the Senate. "I don't want to politicize this issue, if there are more parties supporting the initiative, great," says Aiaraldea Komunikabideak.
Goikoetxea suffered a stroke in 2014 and since then needs a wheelchair to move. Having to go weekly to Bilbao for treatment, in 2015 he started a three-year struggle and Renfe managed to put the means to use public transport.
To solve its accessibility problems, Renfe launched a pilot programme in 2018 that currently only offers it and nobody else.
The company itself explained that this offer was a pilot programme, but almost five years later only she has the right to use the ramps. "People have explained to their relatives that they have the same need and need, that they do not allow them to use these resources. I feel like Renfe has bought me and I'm fooling the people who supported me," explains Goikoetxea.
Goikoetxea launched several projects to use public transport. Among other things, he organized a demonstration and brought 121,000 signatures to the Ministry of Development along with singer El Langui rap.
Thanks to this effort, Renfe started a pilot programme. However, after more than four years, he spoke to the company manager in Bilbao, who confirmed that he has only the same possibility of using adapted ramps throughout line C-3.
Hearing it, the duñarra began to account for the situation on social networks and three senators of the PNV (Rosa Peral, Maribel Vaquero and Nerea Ahedo) met with him this week to relocate their claims to Madrid.
The demand of the Orduña is clear, that Renfe put in adapted units so that anyone can take the train in the service of Bilbao. "I only have words of thanks to the Renfe workers and the Bilbao manager, who always help me, but this service has to be universal," he said.
