In eastern Modena, between Viale XXII Aprile and Viale della Resistenza, a specific intervention was carried out aimed at increasing the safety of two pedestrian crossings and a bus stop, which had been planned for some time. Furthermore, within a month, the two avenues will be affected by renovation works on the damaged horizontal signs.
In particular, with the intervention carried out, to protect the two crossings, some posts were placed before and after the pedestrian crossings, as well as at the height of the public transport stop, always in correspondence with areas where there were horizontal zebra-striped signs, therefore, where parking was already prohibited. Upon reporting from citizens, the Administration found that this prohibition was frequently disregarded and therefore that, near the crossings and the bus stop, cars were often left illegally parked, posing risks for pedestrians crossing, who were not very visible. by vehicles in transit. The provision therefore has the function of enforcing the ban already in place, guaranteeing pedestrians a safe road crossing.
Furthermore, Viale XXII Aprile and Viale della Resistenza are among the streets that will be subject to road maintenance in the coming weeks with regards to horizontal and vertical signs. In fact, a package of interventions carried out by the Administration, worth 165 thousand euros, is about to begin, which will affect a series of city streets, in which the horizontal road signs and, where necessary, the vertical ones will be restored.
