ENGLISH Cambio il contenuto Come PRL Muralto il nostro Municipale Dao Nguyen Quang ha lavorato nei scorsi 3 anni per la proposta alternativa chiamata variante 1A che permetteva di salvare Viale Cattori.
A nostro stupore e profonda delusione i partiti Ordine Progresso e Muralto democratica invece hanno affossato questa variante.
Si trattava di una proposta che si integrava perfettamente nel progetto PALoc e dunque una soluzione alternativa concreta per Viale Cattori.
Come PLR sosteniamo fermamente questa variante che non implica stravolgimenti al progetto del PALoc che può essere realizzata anche nei tempi desiderati dal Cantone. Una opportunità concreta.
Sosteniamo fermamente la petizione e invitiamo tutti i cittadini Muraltesi e amici dei comuni limitrofi e interessati al PALoc a firmare questa importante iniziativa di petizione.
Come PLR Muralto abbiamo dimostrato che una variante c’è e il viale Cattori può essere salvato e deve essere salvato!
