Seen from above it seems like a pharaonic work: the Bonorva 131 junction is a complex engineering structure that took a long time to build: four lanes of the state road plus a maze of junctions and roundabouts.
Inaugurated yesterday, it serves two communities which together do not reach 4 thousand souls. And this has made more than a few critics turn up their noses: why so much money for two such small countries?
A question that irritated, quite a bit, the mayor of Bonorva Massimo D'Agostino, who entrusted his opinion on the matter to social media.
«Honestly, I'm a little tired of continuing to read all the engineering sentences of those who think that Bonorva doesn't deserve such a release. But how does the human mind work?", asks the mayor of the Logudorese centre.
«For years we have criticized a terrible intersection, which only from 1980 onwards recorded 15 deaths and dozens of injuries», he continues, «An intersection that put the lives of the Bonorvesi and anyone who passed through it in danger on a daily basis. Finally, after decades «Anas decides to intervene, carries out an important project, certainly not perfect, but certainly decisive, and entrusts this project to a serious, brilliant, dynamic company which in just under 4 years carries out a good job without ever having stopped for a day, apart from a few small periods in which it was forced, and with overall limited inconvenience, and what do the social engineers do? They shoot straight to the heart of the work", complains D'Agostino.
Instead, now the entrance to Bonorva and Semestene is modern and safe: «It's true, there are few of us, but that doesn't mean we have to live in the Middle Ages with trap roads. It's true, we are small, but we still deserve to survive and not risk our lives every time we come to your splendid cities. And this happened very often. Furthermore, the Bonorva junction also ensures safety for those traveling on the 131, not just those exiting or entering via Bonorva or Semestene."
The mayor says he doesn't really understand: «When things aren't done, down with the criticism, when they are done, down with the criticism. In fact, I understand, I'm a mayor. But precisely for this reason I say that Bonorva, like any other town, deserves a modern and safe junction but I understand that, if we don't disappear due to depopulation, we will disappear for the Sardinians because we are so small and two diggers and one were enough. quick exit. With two pennies we did everything." But is not so.
