The city is united in remembrance of the 43 people who died in the collapse of the Polcevera viaduct. Less than a month ago, the first-instance verdict was handed down, convicting Giovanni Castellucci and Mauro Coletta. "We would have liked to see a stronger presence from the government," said Possetti, chair of the Morandi Bridge Victims’ Memorial Committee

Forty-three people died in the collapse on 14 August 2018. The former CEO of Aspi and the former executive at Mit received sentences shorter than those sought by the prosecution, which had requested eighteen and a half years for one and ten years for the other. The grounds for the verdicts are awaited
