In Val di Susa, close by Torino, a social movement has been protesting for the last years against the construction of a high-speed train corridor, which should dig its way under the Alps to connect Italy and France. The protestors are mainly concerned by the presence in the rocks of the valley of asbestos and uranium, the cost/benefit ratio of the works, and the possible presence of criminal interests in such a big undertaking.

Here is their latest press release, concerning what happened yesterday (in Italian).
