An area in Viale La Plaia to be used as a terminus for the latest generation buses.
Now there is the resolution of the Region, it will be made available to the Municipality of Cagliari.
The transfer will be on temporary free loan. The CTM recently announced the conversion of its fleet of vehicles, with the aim of reaching an 80% share of electric buses by 2026. A 108 million euro Pnrr tender is available to the organization.
To reach this target it was necessary to create a new terminus equipped with a sufficient number of charging stations, an infrastructural system not compatible with Piazza Matteotti.
For this reason, the council has decided to assign to the Municipality of Cagliari, on free loan for ten years (possibly renewable), the area used for public car parking located between via Riva di Ponente and viale La Plaia. A space also close to the new student house in Viale La Plaia.
“With this resolution the Region allows the Municipality of Cagliari and the Ctm to carry out the major ecological renewal project of the current vehicle fleet without any problems and without increasing costs”, observes Transport Councilor Barbara Manca.
“The area, of considerable importance for Cagliari, can later be converted for other uses once the terminal has been moved”, explains the councilor for Local Authorities, Francesco Spanedda.
