The president of the Consortium of Mochotran Transport Companies, Alfredo Pulinario (Cambita), said yesterday that about 300 cars remain to be scrapped from those that were taken from the Winston Churchill and Charles de Gaulle corridor.
Cambita said that these vehicles belonging to parents are mostly parked at the Mochotrán headquarters, since the idea was to remove them from those routes with the entry of the new buses. However, he said that their owners still do not receive any compensation in this regard.
During a press conference to thank the pension granted to the drivers of his subsidiary, the trade unionist asked President Luis Abinader and the National Institute of Transit and Land Transportation (Intrant) for a response regarding the cars that have not been scrapped.
“The Intrant has to compensate those people who had their turn to be able to live because they lived from that (from the concho), we have not received the reward that we had to receive either. Now, we ask the President of the Republic to put his good office as he did with these pensions, “argued Cambita.
Regarding retired drivers, he highlighted that many of those beneficiaries suffer from different diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, myopia and others.
In that sense, he thanked the president for the gesture of allowing those drivers to leave the wheel in a dignified manner and with the resources to pay for the health problems that afflict him.
Ensure there will be more runners
In his speech, Cambita revealed that there will be more bus corridors that will belong to this driver’s union, but he did not offer details of which avenue they would operate on and when they would be put into operation. When talking about the attacks on the corridor, Charles said that they have decreased.
