“From contesses to Granatari we will stop all the construction sites.” “The wave is growing, the bridge sinks.” “We want water from the tap, outside Salvini from the Strait.”
Slogans and banners characterize the procession that crosses Messina in the streets of Contensse, Minissale and the Unirra village. The No Ponte Assembly takes to the streets again and does so with an initiative that involved a few hundred people And that it is no coincidence that it took place in the south area, in that portion of the territory involved by a significant part of the projects of works connected to the stable connection between Sicily and Calabria.
“This area-the demonstrators say-already fulfills the function of filing the excavation materials of the Giampilieri-Fiumefreddo railway doubling, among other things, contaminated with arsenic. For months the area has been invaded by trucks. But Contensi should become the second largest construction site of the Ponte project, because it is here that they want to create the new central station of Messina ». And whoever took to the streets claims to want to fully bring the opposition to this work, at the cost of blocking the activities of the construction sites: “The bridge would be the tombstone with which they want to bury us.”
