Messina, (still) collapses in the most upstream part of via Palermo

“It rains in the wet”, in the upper part of via Palermo, Whenever the waves of bad weather rage and do not give respite. And the alarm bells sound strong, given that the residents fear for their safety. Already in the “calm” days, large boulders come about frequently from the costons above the road. The consequence, this, of a worrying phenomena of hydrogeological instability to which the remedy is not yet remedied. To the inhabitants, there is nothing left to do but continue to report and often to intervene before the competent subjects do it, removing the obstacles from the artery. On the occasion of the storm last Sunday, other stones, trees and pieces of soil have detached from the hills, making transit impossible. Often, the Civil Protection and the Municipal Police, when solicited, certainly do not shine in timely intervention – denounce families -. Hence the further request to make early and place more than one embankment. Before it’s too late. (RD)
