The Giro d’Italia which will take place on Thursday in Osimo, Castelfidardo and Polverigi has raised controversy. In Osimo, which has decided to close its schools, an online petition has also started to have the decision revoked. In Castelfidardo, after the municipal council, the Fare Bene opposition lashes out against the administration for the state of the roads: “The roads are in a state of degradation. Every year the Local Police raises fines for around one million and 900 thousand euros in large part due to speed cameras. This sum should be allocated to road maintenance, however, every year only 46 percent is actually collected by the Municipality. The Municipal Administration does not have the capacity to collect the amount due, so only the citizens of Castelfidardo end up they pay the fines and the roads remain ruined. Why maintain speed cameras that we are not capable of managing? For the budget councilor we in Castelfidardo will have to make sacrifices on Thursday, it would have been desirable to show up for this important appointment with the. new asphalting of several roads which are in indecent conditions but considering the technical times it is almost certain that cyclists will race along two streets which have numerous potholes and “patch-up” interventions.
