TAV 5







I often travel the Val di Susa (Susa Valley, Piedmont) and I can't help noticing more and more NO TAV signs.
The readers who are not interested in the NO TAV question will perhaps look upon these photographs as curious images.

NO TAV is a movement of the population of the valley against the construction of a railway line of high-speed train (TAV) Turin - Lyon, in the construction of the so-called Corridor 5 that should connect across eastern Europe (beginning from Kiev), with the major cities of western Europe (including Turin, Marseille, Barcelona to Lisbon).

There seems to be many that are not in favor of this! I'm curious as to how you feel, Pietro! Hope you have a very lovely weekend!

Per andare veloci basta un aereo, ma anche i treni esistenti, con linee da risistemare...Non si deturpa il paesaggio.
NO TAV !!!!!
Grazie Pietro, buon fine settimana.

Gabry
Mi associo al pensiero di Rirì...
Un saluto Pietro e buon week-end!

This anti-TAV is a movement of long duration, as I know from your coverage on the blog. When will the fateful decision ever be made?

I live near Heathrow Airport and I fear that governments will always have their way!

I know this is going to sound so random, but the NO TAV thing came across my mind this week and how you posted them in your blog, only to find a NO TAV post now! so creepy!!
anyway, have a good weekend :) I jsut got back from a trip to Malacca (state in Malaysia) - will be posting some photos up when I can!

I am glad when I see people standing up for their rights when the Politicians try to abandon once more the democratic rights of the voters and steer through their wishes.

Hi Pietro,
Looks that the movement NO TAV have many adhesions.

Love the house's photos with so much greenery around them. The balcony with flowers and the garden is just lovely!

It's much cold there?
Here the weather is very hot.
Have a nice Sunday!

I hope they manage to stop the construction... if they don't want it, there is a fair chance that it is not good for the environment...

C'est un projet qui semble stagner..... Peut-être que les anti-TAV auront le dernier mot ?

Je comprends que lorsqu'on habite une aussi belle région, si préservée jusqu'à nos jours, on soit contre l'ouverture de tranchées dans les montagnes.
Peut-être y aurait-il des efforts à faire sur les lignes existantes pour les rendre plus rapides.
Mais les gouvernements y pensent-ils. Réflêchissent-ils au bien être plutôt qu'à l'argent ? Je ne crois pas.

pierangela
Ciao Pietro,buona giornata.

Marinela
Hopefully they will manage to stop the construction!
Great photos as always Pietro!

happy holidays.

I'm not in favor of things that shrink our world or that reduce outlying regions to curiosities for weekend travelers. I admire the tenacity of these people.

Happy Wednesday!

Hi Pietro,
I am glad you like my old family's photos. I have a box full of them...
I am glad that you like Freddie Mercury videos too. He is my preferred singer always.

Have a nice day!

Caterina
Ciao Pietro,
vedendo le tue immagini sono diventata fan di Val Susa, cosí dico anch'io NO TAV.
Un caro saluto e buona notte

Ciao Pietro, ti auguro un buon fine settimana, se hai bisogno di babbucce di lana spessa, fammi pure l'ordinazione:-)

Pietro: People can be become involved in causes and as long as they protest in a good way they have a right to express their opinion.

Pietro, I probably be against it, why do we need more!

Great gallery of photographs.

Pietro also stopping by to wish you happy holiday season filled with love and peace. Let it be healthy as well. All the best in the 2011.

Take care,
Anna :)

PS thank you for all your comments and visits as well during 2010

Buon week-end Pietro!

Nihal
Istanbul protests and says NO TAV:)

On the other hand, it seems so economical to visit 5's, taking train in Kiev and stop at Lisbon, Portugal, wow:) Interesting voyage, yes I like it, sorry but I love high-speed and high-tech:)

Well, life is so good. Enjoy your life, do not worry so much. Have a nice weekend and third Sunday advent, Pietro.

Nihal
Pietro,
From what I have seen of that in your blog, will they never be able to build the TAV? When will it be announced by EU, final decision about TAV? Wondering if there is not any other opt rather than Val di Susa for TAV-project?

If you believe it will work, I can gladly hang down NO TAV flags from my (three) balconies:)) Fammi sapere, not kidding:)

pierangela
Buona domenica Pietro!

Trotter
Hi Pietro! We don't have TAV but we have Internet... That's something already... ;)

Blogtrotter Two is moving south on the Nile: water, greenery and desert… Enjoy and have a great week!

Joy
It's not so much the No Tav signs that I notice, but everything else around them. That structure atop the hill is great. And then the lovely windows. Really pretty.

How are you enjoying this festive season?

Many thanks for your patience, and for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comment. Come visit again tomorrow!
