For Nerouli Street.
The Mayor made a special report on Nerouli Street. “Nerouli is the road where we have not made serious interventions regarding the potholes, because there will be a replacement of the road. Having developed the study to be implemented requires the extension of an existing section of the road and should be expropriated. These expropriations will be delayed. We will start the reconstruction of the road with a view when we succeed expropriations to fully implement the plan of study. For the time being, we will start with the current situation regarding the report you offer us, but we will have the prospect of completing our own study, so that it does not become a one-way street that is of limited scope and can not be implemented in the future. study”.
