Urban infrastructure and maintenance issues in Calabria

Overview

In Calabria, residents and local associations have raised concerns regarding urban maintenance and infrastructure in Catanzaro and Paola.

In Catanzaro, inhabitants of via Caduti sul Lavoro reported significant road degradation, including potholes, cracks, and overgrown vegetation. A long-standing pothole has forced traffic into alternating one-way patterns. Residents also expressed alarm over an abandoned building used for illegal waste dumping and reported criminal activity, such as drug use and prostitution.

In Paola, the association Paolab called for improved bicycle infrastructure near the railway station. Due to a lack of secure racks and ongoing construction, cyclists have been forced to tie bicycles to construction fences, creating obstacles for pedestrians and vehicles. The association is requesting the installation of more bike racks and the improvement of unpaved parking areas.
