BUSTO ARSIZIO – The market shifts on the back of the current area, in the car park between via Muratori and via Cagliari: the official confirmation of what was already announced by the mayor Emanuele Antonelli a month ago, arrives today, May 22, with the council resolution on the transfer of the market. The moving date is for September 2024, for two years of construction. 100 thousand euros of work will be needed to asphalt and arrange the rainwater drainage in the dirt road between via Muratori and via Cagliari.
The resolution
«The council – we read in the note from Palazzo Gilardoni – has approved a act of direction for the temporary transfer of market activities municipal area from the current area to the adjacent one between via Muratori, via Cagliari and viale Luigi Cadorna, from the beginning of September 2024 until the end of the works of construction of the buildings of the Fili Urbani sustainable urban development project, scheduled for the end of September 2026″. A decision agreed with the operators: «The location – specifies the council – was identified following the evaluation of different hypotheses and discussions with street vendors’ representatives and it seemed the most suitable given that it is adjacent to the one currently used”.
The works to be carried out
However, before the move it will be necessary fix the semi-dirt car park in via Muratori, towards the Tre Ponti, which has long been in the sights of residents because it transforms into a “swimming pool” with every heavy rainfall. «To allow the market to take place in an area currently used for parking and only partially paved some works will be necessary, including asphalting and the construction of a rainwater drainage system – announces the administration – the council has approved the executive project, for a total expenditure of 102,232.88 euros”. This way you can get everything the space, and especially the parking spaces, needed to compensate those currently present who, with the move, will be occupied by the street vendors’ stalls.
