Mayor Luigi Mennella and Don Giosuè Lombardo, parish priest of the Basilica of Santa Croce, met at Palazzo Baronale to discuss safety in and around Piazza Santa Croce.

According to a report by Metropolis Web, the meeting focused on targeted interventions to improve safety for people who gather near the church steps and for those passing through the roadway in front of the basilica.

The report describes the discussion as frank and constructive. It says municipal offices have been asked to study possible corrective measures for the area.

No specific measures have been announced. The available report does not specify what interventions are being considered, nor does it give a timetable, budget, responsible office, or formal administrative act.
