«It seems absurd to us that after a certain time the streets of Porto Torres become real tracks for mopeds that roam our streets at full throttle until 4 in the morning, far exceeding the decibels that a guitar or drums can generate acoustics during a musical evening at the permitted times, disturbing the sleep and rest of our fellow citizens". Thus the municipal councilor Gavino Ruiu, signatory of the interpellation "City road safety", discussed yesterday during the session in the municipal council.
In recent days there have been numerous reports of the discomfort suffered by residents especially at night, when sleep is disturbed by the loud noises of the motorcycles that run around the streets, a time slot when control is less and the problem arises more safety.
Councilor Ruiu asked mayor Massimo Mulas and his council "if there is a way to intensify checks after 8 pm and what measures can be taken in some areas to bring the road system back to a more civil and respectful level towards of all the Turritans and tourists who spend some time in our city». On the subject of security, the mayor assures: «We are acting to strengthen the local police force. Three new seasonal agents will enter service tomorrow, through an annual contract, and in the meantime the tender for the recruitment of a fourth municipal agent is in progress, which will lead this municipal administration to have one traffic policeman for every thousand inhabitants. An insufficient number compared to the activities of the local police, further implemented, but still a step forward to address the current situation.
