"We are not here to pity something, we are here to ask for what is owed to us: here for seventy years there has been no right to be able to move and to be able to transport goods as in the rest of Italy». Words from the extraordinary commissioner of the province of Sassari , Pietrino Fois, who brought together all the mayors of the area at Palazzo Sciuti: the objective is the (re)conquest of the denied territorial air continuity, with the Alghero airport remaining outside the routes assigned with the new tender of the Region.
Also present at the assembly was the regional councilor for transport, Antonio Moro, a native of Sassari: "We will tell the ministry that it is necessary to immediately activate the emergency procedure", announced the exponent of the council Solinas, in view of the meeting tomorrow in Rome, "because it is inconceivable that northern Sardinia could remain without air connections in a continuity regime".
Alghero, explains the mayor of the Catalan town, Mario Conoci, «is an airport that belongs to us but is a heritage of hundreds of thousands of Sardinians, who must enjoy the right to mobility. This is the battle that the mayors are carrying on ».
