Massimo Zedda takes a long view: «I have few certainties, but one awareness: if one does not set the work of the following five years in the first six months, one does not see things realized». The reason for that premise also arrives shortly: the mayor of Cagliari, since he returned to Palazzo Bacaredda at the end of June 2024, has supported the administration of the ordinary with the new plan for public works. On Radiolina, guest of the program “A tu per tu”, the first previews ( here is the complete interview: the mayor also spoke about civic markets, security and red zones to be established in agreement with the Prefecture ).
The income statement
Meanwhile, the figure: from now until 2029, the Zedda administration will invest 700 million. "We will take the resources of the 2021-2027 European programming and also a piece of the next one". An enormous treasure destined to change the face of the Sardinian capital once again. For the mayor, this is the third term at the helm of the city.
Saint Elias
In the seaside village, two new beaches are planned. "You can also see it on Google Maps," Zedda said. "There is a natural accumulation of sand, both in the dam that faces east, and in the one created by the new marina. There we do not have a dune system to preserve, it is not the Poetto. There are breakwater boulders, more sand can be brought in." The rest is the coastline to be connected definitively, "from the seafront to the Molentargius park."
In the center
Further away from the water, in ancient Cagliari, the walls will be restored. Here too, the money has been allocated. Safe. «The construction site will start from the Public Gardens to reach the Mereu school and connect the promenade of Via Regina Elena to the Bastione – explained Zedda -. The Terrapieno will also be completely redone».
