It emphasizes the association of the genoese shippers Spediporto: "the fear - Adriana Porello perceives, president of the genoese couriers - is that from next week, with the beginning of the schools and the practicability, so deeply modified, it will be much complicating to above all guarantee the deliveries for means over the 7,5 tons.

The association of the shippers evidences that to the problem of the tempistiche of delivery other criticalities are added: stalls of delivery, prohibition of circulation, hour limitations and obstructions. "By the couriers - the general manager of Spediporto specifies, Giampaolo Botta - there will be maximum collaboration, but necessarily it will be necessary to ask more understanding the final customers and to perhaps imagine of the time slots dedicated for the deliveries to the commercial exercises, this for having less possible impact on the city practicability".

We want to work with team spirit and to try to find solutions that they marry at best with the current emergency".
"We will have necessity - Adriana Porello adds - to study and to propose solutions alternatives that regard the distribution that happens with vehicles under the 7,5 tons from those which instead they use means over this capacity. It is a complex topic as those which today the administration and categories are found to face".
