Mattarella: ‘Safety in transport and at work is an indicator of civility’ – News

“Safety in transport, like safety at work, is an indicator of civility that must prevail over any logic of profit, because it affects people’s lives. This is a lesson that must never be forgotten”. This was stated by the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, in a message on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of the Viareggio train disaster.

“On the night of 29 June 2009, Viareggio was injured by the consequences of a train disaster which, today as then, seems unacceptable to us. The images and memory of that tragedy remain indelible. On the fifteenth anniversary, the Republic is close to the family members who saw their loved ones unexpectedly torn from life and who, in pain, were able to start a civil process to ascertain the responsibilities of what happened and to promote, everywhere, greater safety in transport”, adds the head of state in the message.

“Infrastructure networks, including railways, are an essential condition for the life and economic development of the country. Safety is an indispensable prerequisite, as well as being a primary right of citizens and users. We cannot derogate from acquired standards, on the contrary, the level of safety must be raised through more effective controls and technologies and a general growth in awareness”, states Mattarella.
