the Municipality removes the pine trees that damage the sidewalks, they will be replaced with trees of species suitable for the urban context

Extraordinary interventions were started this morning removal of pine trees on via Martiri of Bolognain the so-called INPS area. This is a planned intervention that responds to an age-old issue that has been unresolved for some time, namely the total disconnection of the road surface caused by the roots of the same trees that made itdue to their elevation, the road section is almost impassable:

The explant will be followed next autumn by one new planting, with new essences that are less invasive than the previous ones, such as not to cause damage to either the road surface or adjacent homes. After these operations, maintenance of the road surface will follow, in particular in the portions of the road affected by severe bumps. The entire intervention was planned and coordinated by the Environment and Maintenance Sectors, with the collaboration of the two councillors Savino Losappio (to Quality of life) e Mario Loconte (to the newspaper). For the councilors, this is a particularly delicate intervention which was made possible thanks to the identification of specific resources as well as a necessary new and feasible tree planting program. The intervention appears in harmony with the many observations published in recent years in the press by the ecologist from Andria and botany enthusiast, Nicola Montepulciano: the former President of the local section of Wwf in fact, he has repeatedly advised local administrators to carry out intelligent replacement interventions conifers with possibly native species (like the oaks) or in any case in harmony with the surrounding environment, considering pines And cypresses species not suitable for the territorial context both due to their rapid and invasive development and the consequences on Health (allergies).
