The stretch of Via Azuni, between Via Ponte Romano and Via Josto, will remain temporarily closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic to ensure road safety. Following the fire that engulfed the warehouses, formerly owned by the Italian Railways, on Sunday, November 1st, the Mayor of Porto Torres, Massimo Mulas, signed an access ban. This order will remain in effect until technical certification of the safety of the building and the passability of the restricted section of road has been obtained. The report from the firefighters who responded to the scene notes that the technical assessments conducted after the devastating fire revealed a serious compromise to the stability of the roofs and structural elements of the two buildings, with a real and imminent risk of subsidence, detachment, and partial or total collapse of the walls. This situation poses a threat to public safety and the safety of road and pedestrian traffic, which has forced the mayor to close the stretch of road as a precautionary measure. The Municipality's maintenance department has installed road signs prohibiting access, diversions, and barriers along the affected stretch of road. The next necessary step will be the transfer of ownership from the Region to the Municipality, which has already decided to demolish the structures to make way for new parking lots.
