The tourist test has been passed, at least for now: «Very nice», says James Pariscalle, arrived from London and intent on enjoying the warm sun that closes January .
In reality, many seem to be smiling in the stretch of Via Roma freed up after almost two years of seemingly endless work: 675 days, to be precise, interspersed with controversy, false announcements and the patient wait of those who have taken it all perhaps more philosophically.

"Approved benches, very comfortable," assures Laura Gessa, satisfied with everything else as well . "I approve of everything, a redevelopment in my opinion well done that makes our city more beautiful and welcoming."
But there are also those who show a lot of doubts: «Aesthetically nice and maybe even comfortable, but not very functional, because finding cars passing from one side and the other is certainly not the best», reflects Luciano De Luca, 77 years old and with several questions: «Then we'll see when the trees grow, assuming they grow».
