New year’s eve, maxi controls to the Colosseum and the Circus Maximus – Corriere della Sera

The machine’s safety is put in motion, in view of the events that will enliven the new year’s Eve in Rome: from circus performances from 22.3 or to the Circus Maximus, to the numerous initiatives in the programme on the bridges and the lungotevere. Supervised special the Colosseum and the ancient stadium between Fao and Caracalla, always the navel of the festivities on the night of San Silvestro. The commissioner, Nicholas D’angelo, has placed controls stringent in these places “sensitive” to the large influx of people. Five gates of access to the area, to sort the transit and make the necessary controls.

24 hour monitoring

The plan, crafted to cover the 24 hours, provides for the supervision of all the major squares of the Capital, with particular attention to piazza Venezia, piazza di Spagna, piazza Navona, Campo de' Fiori, piazza del Popolo, Trevi Fountain, The janiculum and the Eur. St. Peter’s still remains in force, the specific plan yet adopted for the year of the jubilee. The preventive services already in place from the night between Friday and Saturday, will be strengthened with the total deployment of forces from 19 to Saturday. In the field will be deployed a thousand agents, including select marksmen, horse patrols and police bicycle. To complete the device, patrols on foot and in the police river that will be overseeing the city while sailing on the Tiber. All of this deployment to prevent the risk of terrorist attacks, the kind of Nice and Berlin, will be placed planters shatterproof and metal detector.

Alert even in Florence

In Florence, for the final concert of the end of the year, will be installed the metal detector with an absolute ban of lead barrels and “any type of blunt object,” as they explained to the police commissioner and the mayor. The show highlight, with Marco Mengoni, will be held in Piazzale Michelangelo, the belvedere of the city, and it is here that the supervision will be at the highest level with the different electronic gates and the opportunity to be searched. Special attention even to the gates of the Ztl (limited traffic zone) with the cameras, exceptionally, will remain lit throughout the night and therefore it will not be possible to access with the car for non-residents, to reach the center will need to use the trams and shuttles. There will also be patrols (police and paratroopers of the Folgore), which they will control, as well as some agents in the bourgeois will preside over the main squares, which will host events the first among all the Piazza della Signoria where they will be, as always, a concert of classical music.
