Work in progress Garibaldi after the November crash. He will pay the insurance, the damage is eighteen thousand euros

IVREA. Eight months after the accident from which the problem arose, the demolition and reconstruction work on the low wall in Corso Garibaldi began, just before the old bridge over the Dora. The construction site started work last week, with a closure forecast placed at the end of this one.

The insurance company of the driver who caused the damage will pay. As to why it took eight months before starting the construction site, which the case wanted in operation in the two hottest weeks of the last twenty years, the Councilor for Maintenance Michele Cafarelli repeated what had already been highlighted last spring, explaining that “The project was complex because of the type of bridge on which we are going to work, supported by arches which in turn cannot receive too much pressure”.
