Circumvesuviana, De Gregorio: “All territories have equal dignity. Enough controversy”

NAPOLI – “Eav opera riconoscendo pari dignità a tutti i territori serviti dalla Circumvesuviana”. Così il presidente dell’Ente Autonom Volturno, Umberto De Gregorio, in una lettera indirizzata al presidente dell’Unione dei Comuni del Baianese-Alto Clanis, Simone Rozza, e per conoscenza al governatore della Campania de Luca and to the president of the Province of Avellino, Rizieri Buonopane.

At the center of the communication, the management of investments on the Vesuvian lines and the controversy that arose following a social comment by President De Gregorio. “The new 56 trains purchased by Stadler – he emphasizes – are intended for all the Circumvesuviana lines, without any exclusion. The same goes for the new railway signaling system, entrusted to Alstom”.

De Gregorio claims constant dialogue with the territories and direct confrontation with the mayors: "The requests are received and accepted when possible. We are always available for a serious confrontation, but we remain distant from those who only seek conflict or exploit online discussions.

Regarding recent controversies, I would like to point out that I have never said anything offensive: I only observed, in a banal conversation on social media, that Sorrento lacks a highway, unlike Baiano, Torre Annunziata or Scafati. Nothing more”.

Finally, the president of Eav reiterates that the strategic choices of the company are shared with the Campania Region, while those relating to railway safety remain the exclusive responsibility of the transport body.
