Monza: the appeal of Beatrice, who has to start high school, on the sidewalk of via Appiani

Beatrice Galbiati will start high school at the Dehon Institute in Septemberin via Appiani in Monza. Beatrice moves in a wheelchair and the conditions of the sidewalk on Via Appiani, on the side of her future school, do not allow her to get to class independently. Too many holes and unevenness in the ground make the journey to the Dehon an obstacle course. Impossible to do without the help of someone pushing you.

Monza: Beatrice’s appeal, reports that have so far gone unheeded

The Galbiatis decided to participate in the meetingfinal moment of tour of the mayor in the San Biagio Cazzaniga district (started on Monday 15 April in the morning at the market in the hospital car park) because until today, despite reports to the administration, no one took their request into consideration.

«Unfortunately it often happens that the conditions of the pavements are worse than those of the streets. We have already written to both the mayor and also to the councilor for public works, Marco Lamperti without obtaining any answers. We hope that our request will now be taken into consideration, at least before next September when our daughter will start attending the Dehon institute».

Monza: Beatrice’s appeal, councilor Giada Turato

A situation, that of roads and sidewalks, which would require – as councilor Giada Turato also specified – triple or at least double the investments that can be set aside. «The offices draw up a list of routes that have priority for safety reasons. I believe that the sidewalk on Via Appiani should also be a priority to allow anyone to access the school safely“, It reaffirmed Pilotto.
