Here’s what’s changing in water transport in the lagoon. Mobility councilor Boraso: shame, I’m writing to Mattarella. The Northern League regional councilor (and ACTV employee) Dolfin: they are the sentries. The company: it doesn’t depend on us
Two hundred between pilots, sailors and drivers committed to seats, AVM suspends nine shipping lines in Venice for three days. “Enough. On Monday I will write to President Mattarella and President Meloni to ask change the law and ensure that those who work in essential services cannot be list representatives”, blurts out the Venetian councilor for Mobility Renato Boraso. «The list representatives designated by the parties are the sentries of the count – the immediate response of the regional councilor of the League Marco Dolfin -. Otherwise as observers we would have to call the UN Blue Helmets.”
What changes: the inconveniences on the lines
The cancellation of the vaporettos and the controversies are the constant of each electoral cycle. The peak Of absences it dates back to around 2018 340. In recent years the number of those absent for civic duty has settled at around 200 (mainly shipping operators, the rest on bus duty). It’s mostly about representatives Of list because the Municipalities, in reviewing the lists of presidents and scrutineers, gave priority to unemployed, unemployed And students. The company now has a well-established system to ensure service. So tomorrow, Sunday and Monday the direct service will be suspended Murano Priority Dmpthe circular Murano San Giobbe Nmthe lines 1, 2/, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 15. And it will be decreased there frequency on the lines 11, 12 and 14. To compensate, they will be there additional trips of the line 2 on the San Zaccaria-Tronchetto route via Giudecca and Lido-San Zaccaria. Finally, the Tronchetto ferry–Lido will not carry out the three morning runs between 5 and 7.30 on the outward journey and three on the return journey and three o’clock, always going and returning, between 1.20 and 15.50; the last ride will be at 10.30pm.
«Three quarters come from Chioggia»
«The company, together with the municipal administration, apologizes to the citizens for the inconvenience caused – reads a note – which certainly did not depend on the will of the parties but as a consequence of legislation in force. Once again we want to remind everyone of the meaning of responsibility in a service, such as local public transport, which is essential for the life of the city”. Today, June 7, AVM will also communicate the changes for the bus. «Let’s leave the citizens on the ground: I apologize to them but 150 sailors and pilots to replace the absent ones are not easily found – Boraso began -. Shame on the parties, because they indicate the list representatives. And let’s just say that three-quarters they come from a specific territory. Which is Chioggia. The prefecture confirms to me that it is not possible to precept them, given the current law. So let’s change the law: on Monday I will write to Mattarella and Meloni.”
«What are list representatives for?»
The request: limit the number of list representatives who work in the provision of essential services. “But what are list representatives used for? for the Europeans? I really hope the government makes a new law. And let’s see if the unions challenge it”, she challenges. Not the unions but the parties indicate the representatives, who they go around the polling stations to check that the vote cast for one’s party is accurately taken into account in the event of disputes. “And the cost of democracy and Boraso has to deal with it. Otherwise we will end up like non-democratic countries, where voting is monitored Blue Helmets – replies Dolfin, who is from Chioggia and works for Actv – Of course the League has called activists and supporters to the polls: they are the sentinels of the counting. Many from Chioggia. Of course, they are 800 out of 2 thousand operational employees. Is Venice complaining because there are tourists and fewer boats? He could have activated the access ticket on the weekend of the vote.” That there will be.
