Sueña Torrevieja has given a positive assessment of the council’s decision to launch a call for eight new eurotaxi licences in the municipality. The local political group has described the move as an important step towards improving a service it says is clearly insufficient for the city’s current needs. The expansion forms part of the budget agreements reached for 2026.

The party’s spokesperson, Pablo Samper, has said it is right to acknowledge progress when commitments are met. He has stressed that increasing the number of eurotaxis was both a budgetary promise and an obvious necessity for Torrevieja, particularly in terms of accessible transport.

However, Sueña Torrevieja has criticised the lack of publicity and transparency surrounding the application process. It says some interested professionals did not find out about the call in time, and the group has submitted a question to the municipal council requesting a full timeline of the procedure and an explanation from the governing team.

The group has also renewed its call for temporary eurotaxi licences, which are permitted under regional regulations. It argues these would help address peaks in demand linked to population growth and tourism, and has reiterated its commitment to accessible mobility, transparent administration and more effective local governance.
