Salerno: Infratech to remove unsuitable sand from Torrione beach
The Infratech consortium has agreed to remove unsuitable sand from the Torrione beach in Salerno, following a meeting between company executives and the municipal administration. While the company intends to proceed with the removal of non-compliant material without imposing additional costs on the public entity, the process remains subject to final approval from the Campania Region's Environment Office.
The intervention is currently awaiting the results of geological analyses to plan the restoration of the beach accurately. The situation is also under judicial scrutiny, with an ongoing investigation by the Prosecutor's Office. Prosecutor Raffaele Cantone stated that investigations regarding the Salerno beach nourishment are not yet concluded and will yield concrete results shortly.
Salerno Mayor Vincenzo De Luca acted as a mediator during the discussions to prevent a contractual breakdown, noting that Infratech manages other strategic contracts in the city, including works on the western coastline and the dune park.
