I could hardly see the road anymore i knew it was a jet i was suddenly the cars stopped dr but it comes to the group was it because it seemed perfectly normal to me probably an accident im going to be caught but refused or got to work i get by the departure of people as i looked ahead i saw the bridge turn into dust and disappear into the abyss born stupid to see forgive me for supposedly so yeah if you drive are beyond beyond just one i must have been in a hurry or become me and he overtook preemie plunged into the abyss before my very eyes. Activists are born to insure up to. Forty three people lost their lives that day. Hundred otari was at his place of work under the bridge and all of this little girl out of i didnt see it collapse but i heard a loud noise and it hit me right in the hot. Water. I was born here. Ive seen them around the bridge all my life. I drive over it all the time. I dont want. No longer seeing the bridge and knowing that so many people died that makes me feel empty and bitter. About it. The fifty five year old still works for federal still but because the recycling company is now in a restricted red zone area nobody can get to it and its facing bankruptcy. Many of his coworkers are now unemployed. Only four are still completing outstanding orders on the premises of a company next door. The two firms are actually competitors but its still helping under his company in its time of need. Fishmonger Andreea Bruno was on vacation with his mother when the disaster struck. They lived in one of the houses on the other side of the bridge which is also a restricted zone. Theyve been living in a hotel ever since. I threw out for paul. The collapse of the bridge put an end to life as we know it. But its going to last all our possessions and also our feeling of security. Thats the worst thing for all concerned with as a persona. Some three months after the collapse under it bruno was finally given access to his home again. Number five in the middle of the restricted zone. He was born there and lived there with his mother. They were among the six hundred people evacuated in august. He cant take his car into the red zone which is being treated as a crime scene. The state Prosecutors Office has launched an investigation. Andrea is apprehensive. But. Hes allowed seventeen minutes per room to get what he needs from the apartment but. The people call the small of my mothers things or whats important for those memorabilia i wonder clothes it was hot when we had to leave and now its getting colder and colder awning something warm to wear happening that cause the. Air mania bruno his mother waits outside the restricted zones her son didnt want to ask her to go to the apartment with him the eighty one year old might not withstand the ordeal. A trip like that is just too painful for me. Either. Would be so nice if i could go back to my old apartment my apartment was my nest i felt safe that he was a good thats where my memories of my whole life all everything which connects me with my family with my children and with my husband. Who sadly passed away among them its so terrible to have to go through all of this stuff but at a bit of a high school you know. I know theyre going to tear this place style but so course its not a nice feeling because it hurts a lot probably have to do it theres nothing else we can do it yourself i. Put up a little gotta go sign the forms i. Have a. Right. To be focused on getting the job to be able for that we will hear about the struggle to get more for our you know and im so afraid our house will be demolished and theres nothing i can do to the. Whats to be done about the bridge should it be rebuilt or replaced the government in rome has been arguing with the bridge operator out a struggle for months. Every day engineers carry out measurements watched by the people most affected. But theyre being left in the dark. Sensors have been installed everywhere. Because the ruined bridge is still in danger of further collapse the families are only allowed into the red zone one by one. Today only under it and his brother can go in accompanied by the Fire Department i mean the freezer he last saw his apartment three months ago which journalists arent allowed to. Andrea gets a button camera. Seventeen minutes per room whats the most important thing what do you leave behind for the bulldozers. As he goes into the apartment he tells us what hes doing. Or a month or three what i was sent because i knew i had to leave my home for good in a place ive lived for forty five years about overseas. But its not that im not only a mom my mother and i made a list of what he was she told me what was important to her i mean that and so i knew what i had to get for and what things we would give up and you know because we didnt have enough time to take it all out but in the absence of a cause that. Youre already imagine that i have this picture in my hand you know my. My mother on the sofa in their sleeping noon and then caught all of their own thing that was in july just before the collapse was in of all the yeah answer so far i mean if you study here weve got different two generations since family this was it was the first thing we carried out of the apartment. Over the. Years i knew it would make my mother happy to lie on that sofa i had no mother facilities and the but this is the way i do you know if you can do. Oh oh. Oh oh oh. Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh one box from the small room and one from the living room. The morandi bridge a memorial to negligence and indifference. Victorio to get those trucks and ever present reminder and silent reproach against those responsible for magic in providing enjoyment godsake its not normal for a bridge to collapse like that seeing everything disappear before your eyes is indescribable getting to even youre. Going to perceive a man or happened it seemed impossible. Jeff bridges gone a couple. Different day while these things were shooting through my head the suburbs that cause a crime so much but i realized that i was still a part of what was left and right in front of it by. Mr bryan and thats when i got scared. When grabbed my cell phone you know sort of jumped out into the rangers and ran as it took me five seconds to get to the start of the bridge anybody to mind are just that have appeared to. Me. She would have been i mean just for up a book theres little of it separates us from death very very little ride the run or so used to following our daily routine. Committed to coping with. Every day life like theres a guarantee of life for someone who can save us from death more people more do you but theres no such thing as a guarantee youll be subject to grandma we can die from one minute to the next without much you do for me and i think about the people who died the children they left behind whole families have been wiped out disappeared just like that in a flash i saw that with my own eyes ive been there half a minute earlier it would have happened to me to the bone. Meat. You know when you sort of from out there you i came to a halt at the most critical point its very very dangerous here you can hear it cracky even see it moving is there but was it your. Be able to see it so dangerous there you cant even told my truck back off to the polls look at their order. On the floor. On the other side of the collapsed bridge the workers from fair. Get a visit from their boss hes just had a meeting with the mayor of genoa and andrea all tara is anxious to hear the outcome a new plot of land will have to be found for the company if the jobs are to be rescued. We study you and your night. Will drop. Unfortunately no final decision has been reached you will keep on trying to find a site for us. But there was no official statement. At all so well have to be patient child could be us but how much time do we have. You know. I mean she everything depends on when the bridges are actually demolished if its days december then of course we have to be out of here. We did it but our competitor is what out to allow us to continue working on their premises until march or april but i hope theyre still willing to help us. And if they dont give us the land possible still she dont you if the city of genoa does not find a suitable site for us well probably have to close down at the end of december and all you. Feel it will be but i. Mean thats sadly the current state of affairs. Probably really beautiful. Under is boss has invested a lot over the years to modernize the company. Now hes not even allowed access to it. They were given permission to remove some of the equipment and theyre hoping theyll be able to save more machines from the site. But the uncertainty is giving both the employer and his employees sleepless nights andreea ultra is married with two children. The younger one is thirteen and still attending school. Maybe. If the Company Closes after twenty five years because of Something Like this. Well its very sad. It feels so unjust. I mean just think the same for me i mean just the. Fact of a fourth of all losing a job at my age in italy is really bad. Digenova even more so. When i ask there are hardly any alternatives because im not the only one looking for a job. Because of the bridge collapse over two hundred people are already in a bind without. Which aint a persona. Ok a little without a job i cant cover my overhead and i have to be paid instalments. I risk losing my apartment if i cant pay my bills anymore what can i do i need to walk the walk in love or level. Were. The bridge collapse has turned the chair tows a district of genuine into a dead end. People here refer to the restricted zone as a wall. All the links to the city center and board have been severed. And the people have to make long detours to get to work supermarkets or school. Customers are staying away because of the constant traffic jams. One business after another is closing. Fishmonger Andreea Bruno also fears for his livelihood he was born here and his home is here. Not only relied on sure toes the locals for its trade but also one through traffic. His turnover has dropped by forty percent since the bridge collapsed how long will he be able to afford to pay his sales assistant. Oh those thats held up for me thats you mean the up at the bridge operator out just about a pedo so at one time compensation of thirteen thousand five hundred euro i think i got so that i wouldnt have to dismiss my saleswoman out of it out of it that nobody batted it off for the job or a part of it was also a transitional payment for my mother until we get a new apartment i mean. Why you watch after all that is from the mouth i was born in centos a fifty five years ago was the wife lived in this house for twenty four yes because that was a lot changed since the bridge collapsed john come get me. Down a banal example of a place called the border every tuesday we used to meet on the football pitch for a kick around. Where you can be my baby you know what the yeah thats gone now but i want to see a lot of my players from outside dont come here anymore because of the heavy traffic that he was just going. On to do in the us each of andreass family members feels the effects of the collapse of the morandi bridge in their own way they are confronted with it every day. One question is going to three of the fall because the coverage those factory buildings down there under the bridge are all being demolished. Well you know over a couple you dont want the born to my house to work right here right next to the bridge you know what it is that up with that one door switch after it collapsed i was transferred to turin you know into the forty thats for the beloved or whatever on the thirty you know miami lived here in genoa for two and a half months. In the code for that was it up to the museum and but when i come home at weekends there with a week of course i can if you really anger the bitterness the sour mood especially here and should tosser. It in church or in the sun pit or in a district are the worst affected. By. A certain sense that something is wrong. And you feel peoples indignation their uneasiness is to put you on the. Muscle to do what im told those who are you sure is very honest with ourselves not only our monthly income thats at stake supplement either of us knows if we will still have a job tomorrow. My son also works for a company in the red zone now they are also making losses and having to cut jobs. Thank you andrea bruno and his mother are getting an apartment today half an hours drive from turtles are on the other side of the city. Its only an interim solution but still. I guess or finally we can see some light at the end of the tunnel but you know weve had a lot of problems and its not easy sleeping for months in a hotel bed with your mother. So we need to see what happens next with the new apartment so. I did that it was kind of thank you so much going on and we have to find a bride for under a. Different girl. The fishmonger and his mother are back in the spotlight the local media have turned up. Six families in all are moving into new apartments today. And are going to. The country. And i dont mean. A. There to see the keys being handed over are the mayor of genoa who is now also commissioner for reconstruction and the president of the region of liguori and i did it and i dont. Know what i know now that youre going to see. This in their media and rehab bruno are flattered by the attention. That i was at them not that night at the. At about ten about well that was a lot i would enjoy them but my love for trouble sue a bit one but really what. Were we going to see him in two thousand. So that was a good place it was to be that which is the familys ask how long theyll be able to stay in the new apartment. Oh shes the same teacher twelve eighteen months theyre told to do in a. Group of. People that. Doesnt have time for the very day you know. They also learn that the government has passed a new law to get some compensation probably within the next two months. I feel like i. Well. Thats the new apartments another platform for the politicians. I mean today is supposed to be a celebration but the question of blame for the catastrophe has been pushed into the background cut it lingers. Like. Liguori in president giovani took his take on the issue draw a call that you have to look at the Regional Government and the city im not responsible for the inspection of state buildings on our territory. With the ministry of transport did not consider it necessary to lay out requirements for further inspections. Before sort of it could be surely surely could follow highway operator out there make mistakes whether or not there has been intentional fraud is a matter for the judges not the politicians the current to create least rules out his involvement in any reconstruction work so the pro circuit. Is challenging this decision in court. The tug of war continues. The residents themselves have been sounding the alarm for years. Sometimes dont even dropped off the bridge on to the roofs of their parked cars were. They even formed a Pressure Group but nobody was listening to their protests. This wasnt an earthquake or a harken the state should have been monitoring it but it didnt get in on the top of one of the cool. Sure they knew that if you have an engineer ask a vet experts opinion some even commissioned by their state. People were aware of the condition of the bridge but nothing was ever done mine on my focus on. The part of the operator altos trotty also knew about the condition of the bridge we wanted it should have intervened even if it would have suffered financial losses even if it would have had to interrupt the flow of traffic to do so that you cant let people continue driving across a bridge like that. On a very lonely man to and a half million vehicles used to cross the marandi bridge every month really got very close on the way from france to italy trucks to the port i myself used to cross it two or three times a day. Were. They were thinking about demolishing the bridge as early as two thousand and three and now fifteen years later it collapsed in each of you already thinking that the bridge could be in danger of collapse in two thousand and three you cant just ignore it juicing it for another fifteen years im going to finish on. The victims of the bridge collapse have had enough promises and provisional solutions they want certainty not just a temporary home like one of these new apartments where they can now stay for eighteen months and wait for the next move. At the same time they dont want to seem ungrateful. I think the police opening the door and theyve promised us compensation so that we can start a new life. Thats a pretty fair id say with the compensation will be a lot higher than the value of the old apartment we were very happy about that nobody ought to have them even understood that its not about the money for an apartment but about compensation for pain and suffering for a wound. That will only heal this difficulty by that i have nothing to eat and ok though i might imagine ill be there for the sequel. I mean your bruno has at least got some of her things back now memories are especially important to her. But she cant shake off the traumatic feeling of lost so quickly. That i barely imagine them being on that ive ever had that around me my little son andrea painted this picture when he was three years old. And i said a it looks like our house yeah because you know that you say yeah. So set it is seven flows and we lived at the top puzzles me is that he painted me here with the bishops crazy it was makes me. A bit cool that you know that he made me and my mother very sad to lose the planet forever. It was even worse for my mother i was at the corner she lived there for sixty one years. Yeah that i knew about about did i just tell myself that life goes on. At night i dream im standing at my front door and i cant get in there then i wake up with a start in the middle of the night i wouldnt wish that on anyone. Because of the. The disaster has also left its mark on truck driver vittorio door ghetto. Energical a v the less that ive done why certainly look at roads differently now in a seven hour drive over a bridge i could teach you and i think its about to collapse the bridge. This feeling of yours on coming back where you are that you. Meant i want to
