The work, he recalled, enjoys the unanimous support not only of the territories and cities directly concerned, but also of the economic world and the environmental planet

It is a work - continued the President of Confetra Liguria - "that, a unique case perhaps in the landscape of infrastructure designed, programmed or slow achieve, enjoys the unanimous consent not only of the territories and cities directly affected, but also support economic world and the environmental planet, which they see as a this railway line is also the only answer to make transport to and from the port of La Spezia."
Laghezza recalled that, according to the latest estimates, the costs of complete the pontremolese double track in the 64-kilometre and build the pass tunnel, would amount to 2.2 billions of euros.
Highlighting that, according to very recent estimates, airline Alitalia has already cost the state something like 10.5 billion euros and every year it weighs on the budget over 500 million euros, Laghezza complained that 'For the Pontremolese railway, there is no allocation even though the cost-benefit ratio induced on the economy Italian language, tourism and defence environment would greatly exceed the value of the investment. For Alitalia, he noted, it is continuing by default from a capital increase to the other. Is it not time for prefer to a flag carrier a real, real and concrete flag strategy that aims to relaunch the our country?"
"Personally," concluded the President of Confetra Liguria -- I think our territory deserves more and I from all institutions, central and local, a shot of pride, to bring the Pontremolese back to the center of the corridors European Union and to mobilise the resources needed for a speedy start-up jobs. Any other solution is a compromise downside, useful perhaps in the immediate, but without perspective for the Future. We expect clear signals from politics in this direction which means immediately freeing the Pontremolese from the laces that they put her on the list of second-level works, which would be important, but not priority."
