Urban tree removal protests in Senigallia

Overview

In Senigallia, the organization Italia Nostra has raised concerns regarding the ongoing removal of pine trees along Viale Anita Garibaldi. The group describes these trees as part of an “identity-forming landscape” and a vital historical and environmental testimony for the city.

Italia Nostra notes that while authorities often cite damage to road surfaces caused by root systems as justification for removal, these issues could often be managed with better care. The group suggests that trees are frequently sacrificed to prioritize space for automobiles, noting a lack of replacement projects following previous removals in locations such as Via Matteotti, Via Bari, and Stradone Misa.
