交通局明年捷運預算補助給台中市政府捷運藍線預算只有45億元,比原先同意的91億餘元,還少46億餘,對此,市長盧秀燕今天受訪表示,中央明年給捷運藍線的預算比原來依約的少了一半,但她不太擔心中央不給錢,相信補助會到位,只是擔心慢了,會繼續爭取。

交通部116年度預算「大眾捷運系統建設計畫」,補助給雙北地區預計8筆共201億8256萬3000元,高雄市5筆約145億4920萬元,補助給台中市捷運藍線建設計畫僅45億元。

請繼續往下閱讀...

市長盧秀燕今天在參加捷運藍線列車票選活動受訪時表示,有看到明年中央政府有關捷運預算,給台中市的補助比原來依約少了一半,大概少了45、46億左右,她希望中央跟地方雙方能夠依當初的核定而行,中間包括中央政府跟地方政府各要分擔多少比例,早就有規定。

盧秀燕表示,台中市負擔捷運的經費,是全國最高的縣市之一,台中市要負擔56%,中央政府負擔44%,台中市願意負擔56%過半,就表示打造的決心。

盧秀燕指出,基本上她不太擔心中央不給錢,因為這是公文書記載,只是擔心慢了,因為本來有按照這個核定來補助預算,希望中央能夠展現執行力、讓經費能夠順利到位,讓不只是台中的每個縣市的經費,都能夠順利依照當初核定方式來進行。

盧秀燕表示,她覺得中央的補助會到位,只是希望中央不要慢,讓捷運藍線的施工進度能夠如期如質,不要等7、8年,甚至能夠更早就通車,中部地區這麼大一個區塊,需要捷運,但這不只是中部一個最重要的施政目標,同時也應該是國家發展最重要的目標之一。
