A leaky water main, the one that brings water from the Corongiu aqueduct to Burcei. A network that bursts all year round, especially in summer, causing serious inconveniences throughout the country, especially in the higher neighborhoods.
A worrying situation, with the population protesting and with the municipal administration permanently connected with Abbanoa to report these problems. Last week it was necessary to close the schools for a day.
The continuous interruptions are due to numerous leaks present on the pipeline outside the town that from Corongiu first reaches the locality of "Perdexedu", then pouring into the city reservoir. A pipeline that has existed for about 30 years, managed first by ESAF and currently by Abbanoa. A situation of absolute precariousness with the taps that often remain dry and with understandable health problems as well.
And in Burcei the protests are mounting, with the mayor Simone Monni asking for an efficient water service.
"We need immediate structural interventions to stem the problem. Abbanoa must urgently replace the existing pipeline: these continuous interruptions and disruptions are no longer tolerable. The pipeline is worn out, it bursts, pouring rivers of water onto the ground. The workers are constantly intervening."
"In the next few days - the mayor announces - we expect to have a meeting with the president of Abbanoa to discuss all the critical issues and complaints from citizens. In a few days we will have some information on a study that Abbanoa has commissioned to also redevelop the old wells present in the area as an alternative resource to manage emergencies that are now increasingly frequent".
The population is tired of this situation, and summer is approaching and the inconveniences may recur even more frequently. "The administration, always at the side of the citizens - says Simone Monni - is available for any type of action to solve the problem, starting also from a joint operation for the arrangement of the slopes that run along the pipeline from Corongiu to Burcei".
