Lazio, Veloccia: “Navigability Tiber a driving force for development for Rome’s economy”

“The navigability of the Tiber is a very old project, the proposal has been included in the recovery projects. Surely it is a project that would bring a new development to the capital, we must invest in quality tourism, sustainable tourism and the redevelopment of the Tiber not only in terms of navigability but in terms of hydraulic safety, maintenance of its banks, for example. the quality of its waters and also the environmental recovery of everything that represents the environmental ecosystem on the Tiber can be a driving force for the development of the economy of Rome, of tourism in Rome, also for the quality of life of the Romans. Because it is enough to go down to the banks of the Tiber and you are no longer in a city full of chaos, smog, concrete, but you are in an Eden, which is precisely the river world. Navigability can help and this is a very, very large investment, if approved it can be financed with the Recovery funds. In reality, this project also lies in the design hypotheses linked to the Jubilee. It is quite clear that this is a great step forward for the rediscovery of the river ”. Maurizio Veloccia Deputy Head of Cabinet of the Lazio Region says this to Adnkronos about the ‘Navigable Tiber’ project which will be financed with 300 million from Recovery.
