What To Put In A Goodiebag

Ferrovie: Nessun taglio ai treni in Sicilia

(AGENPARL) - Rome, 10 November - "Nothing cuts to trains Long-distance in Sicily. Alarm therefore comes to the rail links between Sicily and the mainland. The travelers are not subject to any discomfort. " So the Secretary for Infrastructure and Transport Giuseppe Maria Reina at the end of the meeting, convened by him in consultation with Minister Matteoli, among the heads of the Department of Porta Pia and the CEO of Trenitalia Vincenzo Soprano. The meeting, however, had already been planned by the end of last week, was born as a result of a situation which has become hot following the news appeared in the media about the cuts that RFI would have made in the coming months in Sicily.
"After a thorough review of the situation - says Reina - has come to a reasonable solution. The lines that could be subject to cancellations, will be maintained. So, no cutting of so-called" feelers "from Palermo, Agrigento and from Syracuse and no cancellations on. Sicily- Reina has made it clear - has every right to believe and hope for a better future for rail in its territory. The solution of course will involve an integration of the financial resources of many millions that will be specially found by the Ministry, taken by many voices, to overcome the situation. "

I Tagli alle ferrovie e le responsabilità della politica

Finally, to train the spotlight on cutting , takes the word regional and national policy, and it was just what we asked for a note of our institutions. To be fair to decommission the Sicilian railways have started to speak after the various corporate structures of Trenitalia in 2000 and Italian Railway Network in 2001. Over the past decade have been closed all the small stations and later dismantled the services stations Messina, Catania, Siracusa etc. to centralize all over Palermo. That this was a business choice not object, but that slowly Sicilian railways and transport are disappearing this is really unacceptable. All this in the past ten years the policy had scarcely affected. Today, I am convinced that the positions taken by the entire political class in Sicily, might not be able to subvert the decisions of the State Railways, and even worse, the budget cuts that the government nazionale ha operato a danno del trasporto pubblico che la stessa classe politica siciliana ha votato in Parlamento. Se, da un lato questa assurda vicenda mi preoccupa, dall’altro, auspico invece che una volta tanto la politica siciliana, quella con la “P” maiuscola, riesca a far valere le proprie ragioni su un problema tanto importante per la Sicilia e i Siciliani, quale è il trasporto pubblico ferroviario, l'applicazione della continuità territoriale (ferroviaria,aerea,marittima) e il necessario completamento delle infrastrutture che da oltre 40 anni sono ancora incomplete. Non vorrei che, spenti i riflettori, tutto ripiombasse nell’assoluto silenzio e nel continuo abbandono di un lembo di terra che all envy us and that in all the national surveys and European results to be penalized for failure to infrastructure and efficient and effective transport .

Can Anything Be Done For Arthritis

La Politica, le Railways and the Unification of Italy


I the countdown and announcements cuts to trains to and from the north, should give pause to the Sicilians and indignation throughout our deputation Sicily.

Sicily, year after year and train after train, has been permanently cut off from the universal transport of Railways.
While Italy from Turin to Salerno runs on the tracks of high speed, thus putting at the disposal of these large cities (Turin, Milan, Florence, Bologna, Rome, Naples and Salerno a) a sort of underground is far more than a thousand kilometers, Sicily is instead permanently isolated from the rail.
The only hope to subvert these wretched Decisions must be a strong stance on all political forces in Sicily, the center-right and center, having to hear all their political weight, so that you avoid this additional and final ax to rail transport, which departs Sicily and Sicily from the mainland permanently "Italy".
am convinced that this is an opportunity to defend, protect and ensure the achievement "the railroad" as a historic day that was the unification of Italy.
The Palermo-Messina railway line was inaugurated in 1895, the line Messina-Catania-Siracusa was built between 1867 and 1871, work on the central ridge, between Palermo and Bagheria, from 1863 to 1885.
At present the railway network in Sicily is the largest railway network in Italy and the Mediterranean island, but is, by contrast, among the most backward as the modernization works have been limited the last century.
In view of the national railway, the region of Sicily ranks 8th for the length of the track (after Piedmont, Lombardy, Toscana, Lazio, Emilia Romagna, Veneto, Campania), al 5° posto per le linee ferroviarie in esercizio (dopo Piemonte, Lombardia, Toscana, Lazio) e al 16° posto con 169 km. (12%) di linea a doppio binario su 1378 km.(a seguire Sardegna, Molise, Basilicata e Valle d’Aosta).
Questi sono i dati con i quali si può rappresentare la grave e duratura disattenzione dei governi regionali e nazionali nei confronti delle infrastrutture ferroviarie siciliane.
Occorre una azione mirata della politica non solo presso i vertici delle Ferrovie dello Stato, ma soprattutto the sole owner of the group that the Treasury, and not that of Infrastructure and Transport.
It 's time in which the entire political class Sicilian recognize his mea culpa and try to recover the lost positions in all these years, " ensure the "territorial continuity and the public rail service that we" must "right>>.
can not and should not occur that Sicily is cut off permanently from the rail transport service "Universal" in view of what is prescribed in the Constitution to ' art. 3, which reads: " All citizens have equal social dignity and are equal ..."

Malaponti Joshua: We are not aware that in Sicily on board trains there have been cases of delinquent liable to render the problem of security

Taking his cue from statements manager of the compartment of the police station of Palermo, Scarlett Irace, on the budget for the activities carried out by the Railway Police in Sicily from January 2010 until today, we want to intervene stating that July 30, 2010 on Channel 5, in heading "Special Outraged" by the journalist Andrew Pamparana, aired a feature on the rail in Sicily.
On that occasion, the journalist who cared about the service posed the following question: "... then there is the problem of security on trains in Sicily there is little preventing thefts and robberies "and the reply by the representative of commuters Palermo, James Fazio, was as follows:
" We demand more of their own security forces, the forces of 'control orders say there's a good, but we want them on the trains ... because unfortunately in these times of crisis, of course crime increases ... it's a proportional thing. ... ".
consists We emphasize that this service is aired within 13 hours of TG5 and hours 20 (high share tv) We wonder what many viewers have thought of such a statement of the commuter Sicily, in sharp contrast, however, what emerged from the positive assessment of the manager, Ross Iraci, the compartment of the police station in Palermo.
We are not aware that in Sicily on board trains there have been cases of delinquent liable to render the security problem and the need to ask for more police on board
trains. We, from Sicily and commuters, we can not do nothing paradoxical about this issue where one side of the representative commuters Palermo, James Fazio, calls more police on trains and on the other hand emerges comforting budget of the Police Station.
There embittered by the fact that this news has not been denied by some, and throughout Italy both past and continue to pass such a message, which sees crime lord it in Sicily. We believe that the declaration made by the representative of commuters in Palermo, certainly does honor neither to nor Sicily and the Sicilians can not erase the work and efforts of the police who daily ensure safety in rail infrastructure Sicilian and which should be congratulated for the excellent work done.
