The railway bridge over the state road 129 to Bosa was seriously damaged by a heavy vehicle . An accident that stops the green train again , on the Macomer-Bosa line, with disastrous consequences for tourism.

The accident occurred last Thursday, after another tragic accident on state road 131 in which a truck driver lost his life , with traffic having been diverted onto secondary roads, including the Macomer-Bosa.

A large vehicle that did not observe the maximum transit height under the bridge, literally got stuck in the structure, moving the railway bridge by a few centimetres , putting it off-axis and severing three of the special bolts that support the entire structure.

A similar accident occurred last year, again in the same spot. "We are trying to find the availability of a specialized company - says Carlo Poledrini, general manager of Arst - we are moving in all directions and involving everyone to repair the fault in a very short time. Obviously the intervention will involve the closure of the road below for the time necessary for the intervention. We hope to finish the work by the end of July ".

An interruption that causes immense damage to tourism-related activities, with thousands of reservations canceled. "Result? The train doesn't leave, tourists are left stranded. So much work gone up in smoke - says Rossana Muroni, president of the Esedra cooperative, which manages the important service - thousands of reservations, earned through gritted teeth, the result of so much work and so much expense. Now we have had to cancel . There is also the risk of compromising the entire season. Is it possible?". It is hoped that the bridge will be repaired before August, even if the forecasts are not rosy.
