“A victory of civilization. The direct connection between the Frecciarossa Sibari-Bolzano to Crotone and vice versa has finally been restored. For over a month, those arriving at the station in Sibari with the Freccia had to wait for over 6 hours at night in a deserted station long-awaited coincidence, if we can call it that, or privately arrange to reach your destination. Since yesterday, two new replacement trips will solve the problem: the RC111 trip from Sibari at 11.00pm to Crotone for 1.30am, always runs. intermediate stops Corigliano, Rossano, Mirto Crosia, Cariati, Cirò; and the RC 116 route from Crotone at 3.30 to Sibari for 6.00, always runs, intermediate stops Corigliano, Rossano, Mirto Crosia, Cariati, Cirò”. The regional councilor and group leader of the 5 Star Movement stated this in a note: Davide Tavernise.
“We succeeded in solving a problem of no small importance for commuters and the many travelers on the Ionian coast, also thanks to the acceptance of our request by the Transport Councilor of the Calabria Region, Gianluca Gallo, who took steps to unblock a situation that from the beginning we believed it was right to consider as a mere error of evaluation. Which fortunately has now been resolved, restoring a fundamental service for these territories. The problem occurred due to the works on the Sibari-Crotone railway section , which started on 16 September and will approximately end on 19 January 2025. It is my intention to fully understand what these works are for, which from the official notes appear to be preparatory to electrification, with technological upgrade and infrastructural strengthening interventions, and I reserve the next few days to forward a specific question to the Regional Council”.
