Napoli. “The first days of rain created chaos in several areas of the city. Naples was submerged in several places: in via Filippo Manna and in the industrial area there were many difficulties for motorists forced to stop due to the excessive rise in the water level. The firefighters had to intervene to resolve the situation.

In Rione Lauro, shops are flooded with damage to the premises and parts of the roadway have collapsed; things are no better in Rione Traiano where the rain has gone over the edges of the sidewalks making even simple walking difficult. Via Cinthia, near Parco San Paolo, has become a raging river and here too the traffic has literally gone crazy.

It is clear that the city can no longer handle sudden weather events with short but very intense rains that knock out the entire sewer system. And we are only at the beginning of the autumn season. An emergency plan is needed to control and clean the drains and to verify the stability of the main roads”.

These are the words of the regional councilor of Europa Verde, Francesco Emilio Borrelli, who received several video reports of flooded streets.
