After years of debate and the unknown of where the future Trueta hospital will be located, Salt will begin to lay the foundations during this mandate for what will be the largest "social and economic transformation" project of the next three decades, according to the current mayor, Republican Jordi Viñas, who is running for his third term in these elections. A health pole that will include the province's reference hospital, a health campus, with the faculties of Medicine and Nursing, a biomedical research center and student residences, among other facilities. A powerful health hub that will change the mobility and urban planning of this area in the south of the municipality, connected to the motorway. A transformation that should also reach the downtown area, which concentrates some of the main problems of a municipality with 40% immigration and which four years ago became the only one in Catalonia in which Vox achieved representation, specifically three aediles
The PSC and Junts candidates list security, home occupation (which they say has grown) or cleanliness as some of the aspects that should be improved in the municipality. The head of the Junts list - a group that governs in coalition with ERC -, Robert Fàbregas, specifically proposes a team of municipal security guards to alleviate the feeling of insecurity that he denounces suffered, above all, the residents of the central sector and a team of immediate police intervention, similar to the ARRO of the Mossos d'Esquadra. The spokesman for the PSC, Joan Martín, has set himself the objective of ending the illegal occupations, which he assures are causing coexistence problems in various communities.
The mayor, who sets housing, security, and occupation policies among his priorities, explains that the City Council has invested nine million euros in this mandate in the purchase of 200 apartments for the municipal park, has managed to increase by 50% the members of the Mossos, consolidate the 57 local police officers and have installed video surveillance cameras at different points.
