Criticisms|Critiques generalized against the station
The opening of the underground station of Jacint Verdaguer has provoked an avalanche of criticisms|critiques on the part of the opposition camps and of some trade unions, when considering that these facilities do not comply with the minimum requirements for its|his|her|their entry in functioning|operation. From the PSOE it has been been specially critical with the absence of limits of safety|security at the end of the way and the use of crosspieces piled up as measured to guarantee the arrest|stop of the train, but also special emphasis on the excess of noise and smoke, the smell of gas oil or the remarkable deficiencies on the subject of information to the users have been done.
It is also noted by the need to look for a technician that the origin of the bad smells of the area of wardrobes, of starting off a study on the exhibition|exposure of the workers at high noise levels, and of increasing the sensitivity of the detectors of carbon monoxide and azote monoxide, determines that they work in the station with the aim of increasing the safety|security of the people.
The town council of Palma and Serveis Ferroviaris of Mallorca are negotiating the redistribution of estates|properties of the Parc of he Estacions as consequence of the execution of the intermodal station buried in the train enclosure.
Even though they have not concluded the negotiations yet, in general lines it is known that the town council will hand the management of the subsoil of the park over to Serveis Ferroviaris. Consequently, the exploitation of the stations buried of the meter|subway to the Universitat, that of the train of Inca and the intermodal one, as well as the commercial area situated in an intermediate level and the underground parking lot with a capacity for 400 vehicles, will be up to Serveis Ferroviaris. In exchange, the Town Council will inscribe as grounds|lands of municipal estate|property another 18.000 square meters that still appear as of train equipment and that were not yielded to Cort when the first Parc was executed of he Estacions. This surface will pass to enlarge the 36.000 square meters that were already of municipal estate|property.
Likewise, all the train buildings that were saved from the demolition when the previous Parc was executed of he Estacions will pass to be of municipal estate|property, except the one situated beside the demolished Pont del Tren, that occupies still the station of buses.
The rest of buildings, once the one that occupies the station Términus has been included, will pass to be of municipal estate|property. In these moments the Town Council only arranged in estate|property one one of the three situated properties beside the post|square of Spain, in the one that have been installed the office of Tourism, a unit|unity of Serveis Socials and the office of European Citizens.
The building used previously as station of the train, will also now in works pass at the hands of the Town Council, every time which the initial proposal of the access to the buried station being carried out through the interior of this property has been discarded. In the corner among the avenues and Marquès de la Fontsanta a new building of volumetric characteristics similar to the three existing had to get up. However, when the project of the new park presented by the architect Juan González de Chaves was modified was suppressed, as the big pergola of iron and crystal|glass that had to cover the first section|stretch of the park, to the one that was named Post|Square of the Station. In the current project the building has been replaced by another one of more reduced dimensions, that will do the function of kiosk and he|she|it will situate itself|himself|herself beside one of the three areas of infantile games|sets projected in the park. Finally, the building named of the steam engine, which keeps still an old chimney, will also be yielded the Town Council. Although the possibility to convert it|him into sociocultural center has been posed|considered, its|his|her|their final destination|fate yet is not defined.
