Emiriana Sako

"After the investments we made in the reconstruction of the main roads, we will start work on all the secondary roads along with their lighting and greening".

This is what the mayor of Durrës, Emiriana Sako, simultaneously candidate of the Socialist Party for the May 14 elections, expressed in the meeting held with residents of New Durres. Mayor Sako said that: "There are 52 secondary roads that have been identified to be reconstructed, while 8 other roads that are being completed will be lit and greened. In this way, we are investing in all the residential blocks in this area, accompanied by all the right elements, such as signage, lighting and greenery". Sako added that many roads have been built in the area of ??New Durrës, such as Shkumbini, Tepelena, Danube, Saint Pjetri, Papa Klementi, Drenica, etc.

Mayor Sako added that the large canal on "Azem Hajdari" and "Vala e Detit" streets will be rehabilitated very soon, an area in which the municipality is working to ensure that the sewers are separated, apart from rainwater, and of polluted waters. These investments will also be accompanied by the greening of roads and lanes dedicated to bicycles. Even in the area of ??new Durrës, the public spaces that will be rehabilitated in function of children and the third age have been identified, while there will also be investments for sports grounds.

In the meeting with the residents of the area, the mayor Emiriana Sako also showed the conversation with a resident, who was worried after the announcements of the opposition that the municipality will demolish their houses. Sako said that: "These are both malicious and ignorant efforts of a person who does not have a vision for New Durrës, of a person who has no plan or project to tell the residents. He has known for 6 months that he is a candidate for the municipality, but there is no program, he also calls you residents of the Swamp. This is another lie of theirs, because we have been used to these lies for 2-3 months. I am telling you that the municipality has no plans to demolish houses, the municipality does not demolish houses, but works to build roads, build schools, gardens, install street lighting, clean the city, etc. We are on the side of the residents and we will help you to complete the process of legalizing housing and we will intervene with the government so that this process ends as soon as possible. This is not a marginalized area, but an area that is developing. The regulatory plan of the municipality does not demolish buildings, but the regulatory plan does not allow constructions on canals or collectors. Their whole effort is a lie, therefore on May 15 we will start work first in this area with numerous investments in roads, schools, lighting, green spaces". but the regulatory plan does not allow constructions on canals or collectors. Their whole effort is a lie, therefore on May 15 we will start work first in this area with numerous investments in roads, schools, lighting, green spaces". but the regulatory plan does not allow constructions on canals or collectors. Their whole effort is a lie, therefore on May 15 we will start work first in this area with numerous investments in roads, schools, lighting, green spaces".

The political leader, Adrian Çela, said: "In 2007, it took about 40 minutes to drive from the center of Durrës to this area, but today it takes 3 minutes. This is evidence of what work has been done in paving the roads, placing signs and traffic lights in this area. I am convinced that the voters of Durres will show again that the Municipality of Durres has only the direction forward, we cannot turn our heads back. You hear what they say: gangs, gangs, crime, crime. They insult the socialist voters, they insult 52 thousand voters of the SP and Emiriana Sakos in Durrës"./ CNA.al
