Bulkheads The fence will be doubled
summer without lake view
After Easter will start the second batch of the yard, from St. Augustine in Piazza Cavour
Enraged hoteliers: "We have said nothing. " Fears for the tourist season will be the third summer
with the fence on the lakeside in the stretch between Piazza Cavour and lakeside gardens. But not enough. Will start immediately after Easter also works for the second batch, which is likely to be divided into two phases. We will start first avenue between Geno and the dock of the Terminus, then from the dock of the Terminus Piazza Cavour. The result? There will be obscured much of the lakefront. No longer the wall, but the wooden palisade that once arrived at the second stage, in fact let free only Piazza Cavour. From Cernezzi
Palace yesterday were limited to saying that "the second phase in the redevelopment of the promenade will start after Easter and ends in late July. The area of \u200b\u200bwork will be between the alley and square Bonola St. Augustine. Engineers are developing in these days of the procedures performed to be communicated later. " And yet the City Council has spoken of "a barrier beneath the concrete floor, technically realized with the" jet grouting "technology (which consists of injecting a fluid stabilizing high pressure in the soil and which has as its purpose the consolidation of defined volumes of soil to improve its mechanical properties such as strength and permeability). At the conclusion of the work - which closely follow the procedures already carried out in viale Cavallotti and partly in the lakeside gardens - will restore the pavement. "
The division of the giant construction site in three separate batches had been designed precisely to avoid getting stuck around the lake and to alternate use of docks so as not to embarrass the navigation. The first batch (from Piazza Cavour to the gardens) will be concluded on August 4, but can not be opened because it must define the street furniture, paving and streetlights, all items in the competition of ideas. The winner will be known July 15, but then we must see whether the municipality decides to implement the winning project, and especially if there are resources available. This means that
all summer long will the fence and that, meanwhile, will be started the second batch. A hypothesis on the table provides that the corridors could be created to enable the navigation to use the dock on the first leg but was not defined in detail if it is feasible and if it is implemented. On a war footing, there are hoteliers. "We are disappointed and furious for the lack of dialogue with the municipality. The riparian have not been notified of the latest decisions, we do not know anything about the methods and time - says Roberto Cassani Hotel Metropole Suisse - we expect another high fence like the one already there? Thus armored whole lake, in spite of the tourist town. Now many foreign clients when they contact us asking for information on the site, want to know if the lake you'll see. It happened even with customers in South America. In terms of image were done serious damage to the city and the tourism industry. " Cassani closes saying, "We are very concerned about the cracks in our buildings, but especially for what is happening in hydrogeological. These days the usual smell is back and have never seen so many mice. "
