Derby security plan modeled on Jubilee protocols; roads closed from dawn

Source: Forza Roma

AS Roma's Derby della Capitale against SS Lazio will be subject to heightened security measures following a protocol used during major events of the Jubilee year. Gates at the Stadio Olimpico will open from 9:30 AM, with road closures along the Tiber embankment beginning at dawn. Three designated access and exit routes — via Ponte Milvio, Ponte Duca d'Aosta, and Ponte della Musica — will manage crowd flow, while four designated control points staffed by stewards will assist law enforcement in monitoring fans entering and leaving the stadium and those heading to the nearby Foro Italico for the Italian Open tennis finals.

Thousands of police, carabinieri, financial police, and municipal officers will be deployed alongside hundreds of stewards, coordinated through the Questura operations center. The security operation will continue during the match and extend through the monitored dispersal of supporters afterward. President Sergio Mattarella is expected to attend the fixture. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini commented on the scheduling: "We would have played the derby at any time. But it is not a good example." Parking restrictions around the Foro Italico have been in effect since the previous day, with the Olympic Stadium zone already secured by law enforcement.

Il servizio d'ordine sarà mantenuto anche durante la partita e quindi poi si occuperà del monitoraggio del deflusso dei tifosi Redazione 17 maggio - 08:30 Gasperini: "Avremmo giocato il derby in qualsiasi orario. Ma non è un bell'esempio" Tre aree di afflusso e deflusso - da ponte Milvio, ponte Duca d'Aosta e dal Ponte della Musica - e quattro punti dove gli steward assisteranno le forze dell'ordine nel controllo dei tifosi in entrata e in uscita dallo stadio Olimpico, nonché di coloro che si recheranno al Foro Italico per assistere alle finali degli Internazionali di tennis. E il giorno del derby e della partita di Jannick Sinner, con il Presidente della Repubblica Sergio Mattarella in tribuna d'onore. E così oggi cancelli aperti dalle 9.30, ma bonifiche fin da ieri sera, con la zona dell'Olimpico già blindata dalle forze dell'ordine. Migliaia di poliziotti, carabinieri, finanzieri e vigili urbani in campo, insieme con centinaia di steward, guidati da quattro responsabili in contatto con un delegato della Lega nella sala operativa della Questura per segnalare in tempo reale le situazioni di rischio. Un modello - scrive Rinaldo Frignani su 'Il Corriere della Sera' - già adottato nelle giornate più importanti dello scorso Giubileo. All'alba di oggi, secondo quanto previsto dall'ordinanza firmata dal questore Roberto Massucci, scatteranno le chiusure al traffico sul lungotevere mentre già in molte strade della zona attorno al Foro Italico il divieto di sosta era già in vigore da ieri. Il servizio d'ordine sarà mantenuto anche durante la partita e quindi poi si occuperà del monitoraggio del deflusso dei tifosi. © RIPRODUZIONE RISERVATA Commenta Continua la lettura Commenti Invia Commento Tutti Leggi altri commenti
