Salvini, 'Cipess ok for the Strait bridge in July'

For the bridge over the Strait "the only thing missing is the approval of the final project by Cipess, I asked for a verification of the timing and it should be by July". The Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Matteo Salvini, reiterated this while speaking at the Ance assembly, where he also focused on the water emergency and the housing emergency.

"For the first time in the history of the Republic - he highlights - we have set up a national plan for water management, for the first time together with the entire territory we have collected the needs", with "requests for 12 billion euros" and "418 projects" based on the requests of the Regions, he highlights, underlining that it is a path that sees "already financed 950 million euros for the first 62 works throughout the national territory, in all the Regions". And "for the 12 billion we will also knock on the doors of Europe".

"We have been working on the home-saving measure for more than two years," he adds, "and it is producing important results in the real estate market: the rental and sales data are showing the most in advance despite all the uncertainties" for the economy, as well as for the impact of conflicts. "I hope," he says, "that the ceasefire between Israel and Iran is actually consequent, both to save lives and for all the related and connected things."

Recapping projects and results for all the areas of intervention of the ministry, the minister and vice-premier also mentions, among other things, the 3.9 billion investment for the Milan-Cortina Olympic Games.

From Ance come "impending stimuli", the minister tells the audience of builders: "Every now and then we tell each other to go to hell but if we are here, with positive results, it is because each of us does his job".
