Traffic was paralyzed and drivers were trapped for hours on the Consortile highway. The mayor of Capoterra declared the situation "unsustainable."

Traffic is paralyzed on the Consortile road, with miles-long lines and drivers stuck in queues for hours: this is the situation this morning following the recent severe weather. "The situation developing along the Consortile road towards Seminese and Sestu is unacceptable," said Capoterra Mayor Beniamino Garau. "Traffic congestion has now reached intolerable levels, with travel times reaching two or three hours. It's unthinkable that our student commuters, heading to Cagliari, are forced to endure this daily."

For this reason, the mayor, reached by telephone, later clarified that he had already contacted the Metropolitan City's Delegate for Education and the provincial school board, requesting the immediate activation of distance learning for all commuting students.

"This measure will be necessary and unavoidable until ANAS resolves the issue of reactivating connections on the SS195 or identifies truly acceptable alternative routes. We hope the interventions are swift and effective," he said.

According to the mayor, we must act immediately, "decisively, without hesitation. We cannot allow delays, uncertainties, or buck-passing to continue to fall on our children and their families. I will continue to monitor the situation closely and update the public promptly. Faced with a crisis of this magnitude, responses must be immediate, concrete, and responsible."
