CORTINA. «From words to deeds. We want to close the procedures as soon as possible to be able to open the construction sites, which are fundamental for Cortina and for the entire valley. The Olympics are not just an opportunity for this beautiful town, but for the entire region ». This was said this morning by the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure with responsibility for the Milan Cortina 2026 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, Alessandro Morelli, who this morning in Cortina had a technical meeting with the mayor Gianpietro Ghedina and Luigivalerio Sant’Andrea, CEO of the Infrastructure company.
«The bobsleigh track in Cortina – Morelli specified – is one of the absolute priorities: races are not held without the sports facility. The meeting with the local interlocutors, with these institutions, was fundamental to understand. It is my intention to meet, as soon as possible, the mayors of the area and the president of the Province of Belluno, perhaps right in the provincial administration headquarters, to acknowledge the legitimate local aspirations and try to solve problems that are not only related to the Olympics. , but to the life of this valley ».
As for the construction sites on road infrastructures, for Morelli “it is our task to make public opinion, citizens, as much as the burden of important interventions, of construction sites that will affect them in the next few years, will give a historical result for the valley , for the entire region, from here until 2050. Interventions expected for decades, today are focused on a few years: this is a limit, not linked to our will, but we must look to the future – he concluded – and to the development of this territory”.
