Implementing party
Project description
The section needs conservative restoration work to stop the mortar flaking off, the detachment of the face, the disintegration of the wall ridges and the presence of cracks/lesions due to infesting vegetation and deep root systems. Structural work will be carried out to restore the stability of several wall structures and the artistic and functional lighting system. Access to the walkway beside Porta Metronia and the patrol path will be restored.
The following works are planned for the realisation of the project:
- preliminary cleaning operations;
- elimination of infesting vegetation and biological attacks;
- conservation works;
- constitutive reinforcement works;
- construction of an electrical and lighting system;
- adaptation to legislation on architectural barriers, safety, fire prevention.
