“With a detailed note, the Ferrotramviaria company, on Friday 21 June, informed that in the last 50 days there have been sixteen thefts of copper cables in signaling systems, criminal acts which have serious consequences on railway traffic, despite the prompt intervention of the technicians of the company, but which also cause economic damage. The company has long been reporting the succession of criminal and vandalism actions along their railway lines, such as the numerous infringements at level crossings, both for violations of the highway code and for demolitions of barriers and damage to infrastructure. In all these cases the sudden suspension of railway traffic is inevitable for the safety of all citizens, who however must suffer numerous and continuous inconveniences, as far as we are concerned, I have initiated a confrontation, in the shortest possible ways, with the company and with the Railway Police, committed to increasing controls and supervision, as well as undertaking any further initiative. We also put forward the hypothesis of opening a table to better analyze the phenomena, monitor the situation and find shared solutions. But the most important invitation is naturally to citizens to be attentive and respectful of the community’s assets, since significant sums of public money are invested in the railway infrastructure. Mine is therefore an invitation to legality, because due to the vandalistic and criminal actions of a few, those who pay the consequences are all those citizens who use the train as a means of daily transport and who have to suffer constant inconveniences.”
This was requested by the regional councilor for Transport and Sustainable Mobility, Debora Ciliento.
