The organizational machinery of the municipality of Siena is already active in view of the days of the Palio on July 2nd. The municipal police are among the city’s points of reference, not only for security and public order in collaboration with other law enforcement agencies and other institutions, but are also available to the community and tourists for any need or requirement.
“We have always had a strong bond with Siena and with the whole community – comments the acting commander of the municipal police Alfredo Zanchi – which is transmitted with a constant and passionate commitment even during the days of the Palio. As always, we will be at the city’s disposal, at the service of its traditions, its culture and its history, through the experience of those who have lived the longest in the body and the enthusiasm of those who are approaching the days of the festival for the first time. Personally, it will also be a particular emotion because he will take on this important role after many years of experience in the traffic police force”.
“The municipal police – explains municipal police councilor Enrico Tucci – is at the service of Siena and the Sienese every day, but it is also thanks to their work that this city can boast of a festival with such profound values as the Palio. Dedication and attachment to the community are sublimated precisely on these days, in which the contribution of the body is indispensable. For this reason, I would like to thank the great work of the municipal police and all the support services.”
There will be a total of sixty-four women and men of the municipal police involved in the days of the Palio in July: the commander will be supported by fifty-six agents and seven officials.
