Spotlights are once again on the safety works of the SP 67, the coastal artery connecting Pozzallo to Marza.

The municipal councilor of Ispica, Salvatore Milana, submitted a formal request for access to documents to the Free Municipal Consortium of Ragusa (formerly Province) this morning to verify the regularity of the ongoing interventions.

The request arises from a technical discrepancy that emerged during the last session of the City Council.

On that occasion, the head of the IV Sector of Public Works, Engineer Carlo Sinatra, reassured the chamber by specifying that, unlike in the past, the current construction site involves the use of rocks of third and fourth category, weighing over 3,000 kilograms.

Milana specifically requested to review the documentation: the goal is to verify that the project documents and the execution methods correspond to what was stated and that the materials used are suitable to withstand the storm surges affecting that stretch of coastline.

The communication was addressed to the president of the Free Consortium, Maria Rita Schembari, to Sinatra, and, for information, to the mayor of Ispica, Innocenzo Leontini.

"This is a necessary step to ensure maximum transparency on interventions that directly impact an extremely delicate stretch of our coastal area," declared Salvatore Milana.

"It is essential that, especially in emergency interventions, there is full coherence between what is planned and what is actually implemented, to protect the public resources used."

The SP 67 is not just a coastal road, but a strategic axis for tourism and the mobility of residents in the Marza area.

The monitoring of beach nourishment and beach protection works is considered priority to prevent the emergency funds allocated from being ineffective in the medium to long term.

Milana finally hoped for a timely response from the provincial offices, in order to provide the citizens and institutions with complete information based on reliable technical data.
