San Cataldo, Caltanissetta. The start of work on the first implementation contract for the redevelopment of the waterfront, financed with 4.360.000 euros.

On the morning of April 11th the mayor Antonio Decaro carried out an inspection on the construction site for the redevelopment of the San Cataldo waterfront on the occasion of the start of the works of the first implementation contract, financed with 4.360.000 euros under the PON Metro Plus 21/27 - Strategies of the Sea, relating to the creation of the garden in the area surrounding the lighthouse and the green area and sports equipment.

In detail the interventions concern the installation of a large provision of equipped public green areas in the neighbourhood, the making of areas for sporting and recreational activities, the making of service and refreshment points in the new public spaces, the recovery of the permeability of the areas to be used as public greenery, the overcoming of the current architectural barriers between adjacent public areas, the creation of a panoramic seaside promenade, the valorisation of the lighthouse, the creation of a new "Lighthouse Square" and theater outdoors and the redevelopment of the so-called "provolona" beach.

As part of the works, the existing places will be remodeled (belvedere, sunbathing platform) which will be made accessible via ramps and pedestrian paths. The existing seaside panoramic point will be redeveloped and transformed into an iconic "sea rotunda". The beach will be equipped with bathing facilities (changing rooms, toilets, umbrella/sunbed storage, bar), while the green area and shaded areas will be increased through the planting of tall trees and Mediterranean shrubs.

The works, expected to last 22 months, were awarded to the companies DE GRECIS COS.E.MA. VERDE SRL – RESTA SRL – IMERA SRL.

At the end of the summer season, work on the second implementation contract will begin, which concerns the redevelopment of the western seafront with the pedestrianization of the Starita seafront in the stretch facing the San Cataldo lighthouse. The new urban planning project involves the creation of public pedestrian and cycle-pedestrian areas, made mainly with local stone. The Starita seafront in the stretch facing the lighthouse area will take on the characteristics of a rambla that runs along the sea, surrounded by the existing stone wall which has undergone specific consolidation interventions and by a pavement with amber stone pavers. Along the rambla route and in connection with the lighthouse area, solid stone benches in the shape of boats, bicycle racks and waste bins are planned. The view over the sea will be characterized by the sequence of a system of newly designed wooden and iron benches and by the system of historic public street lamps with benches connecting the flowerbeds.

“Work has started for the redevelopment of the San Cataldo seafront – said Mayor Decaro -. The overall intervention covers an area of ​​25 thousand square meters which will be equipped with a city park covering 25 thousand square metres, with over 100 tall trees and 2.500 shrubs. At the same time, two sports facilities will be built for outdoor activities, in particular five-a-side football, volleyball and basketball, as well as a play area for the little ones, under the lighthouse, inside which the work to set up the Radio Museum has been completed and coastal lighthouses. The construction site will continue with the pedestrianization of the entire seafront of this portion of the city up to the small beach, which is also at the center of a series of operations that will improve its appearance and public usability. A large staircase will connect the lighthouse to the pedestrian area, a large roundabout overlooking the sea connected to the ground by a pedestrian walkway. This large area for socialization and free time will constitute not only an urban but above all a social one for the San Cataldo district.

The urban redevelopment works of the San Cataldo waterfront, which incorporate what emerged from the participatory consultations with residents, will allow us to rebuild a relationship of proximity between citizens and the sea with the aim of enhancing a neighborhood with great environmental and landscape potential , transforming a condition of marginality into a new centrality based on the accessibility and functionality of public space for citizens and tourists".
