Agrigento residents demand requalification of Via Imera
Residents and business owners in Agrigento are calling for the urgent requalification of Via Imera, a street that was once a vital commercial hub and a primary entrance to the city. Local councilor Marcello Fattori recently met with community members to document the area's significant urban decay.
Key issues identified include deteriorated road surfaces, damaged sidewalks, insufficient lighting, and poor cleanliness caused by accumulated waste and spontaneous vegetation. The community has expressed concerns regarding public safety and the declining attractiveness of the area, which has led to several businesses closing.
A formal document has been prepared for the municipal administration outlining specific requests, including road resurfacing, improved waste management, increased trash bins, and the installation of video surveillance. Additionally, residents are seeking increased patrols from local police to address security concerns and restore the street's commercial vitality.
