He wanted to visit the Colosseum but the escalator at the stop was broken.
Thus a disabled tourist was carried in the arms of some policemen of Rome Capital who literally freed her from an insurmountable barrier for her.
The fact was denounced by the exponent of the Brothers of Italy Federico Rocca.
"At the Colosseum, a scene not worthy of an Italian capital - he explains- This morning at the Colosseum metro B station, some agents of the Rome Capital Police had to carry an American girl with ALS in their arms who wanted to visit the Colosseum. gesture of great humanity that deserves public praise, but which highlights, once again, the lack of architectural barriers that strike even in front of the symbolic monument of Rome".
"Just think that the stairs that lead from Largo Gaetano Agnesi to the Colosseum have been fenced off for months, because they were declared unsafe and the one-way escalator inside the Colosseum stop on line B has been standing still for months -adds Rocca- It sounds like a joke , Therefore,
that twice I presented an agenda to the Capitoline assembly to ask for funds precisely for the removal of architectural barriers and they were rejected.
The fact remains that a situation like this morning is not worthy of an Italian capital that is preparing to host millions of tourists for the Jubilee and proposes itself as the site of Expo 2030". (ANSA).
