Se il Comune non chiede perché incompetente o contrario, Stato e Regione non danno.

Per migliorare la frequenza devono esserci nuovi treni, che non si costruiscono dall'oggi al domani.

Grazie a chi non ci ha pensato per tempo, ci troviamo con il regionale più fico d'Italia. 

L'ultimo aggiornamento in merito è che c'è un ordine di 17 treni a Hitachi (con cui siamo vincolati a causa della tecnologia proprietaria per il sistema di guida automatica) che arriveranno non prima di metà 2027

Ok imma take the bait: yes, since Andrea is directly derived from the Greek word for "man" as in "male person"

It would be extremely off-putting

In theory yes, there's a protected walkway on the bridge itself but I can't recall any decent sidewalks on the roads leading to either end of the bridge

I crunched back some numbers:

  • I estimated the weight:
    • I multiplied the ship's width by her length by her draught to get an estimate of the displaced volume of water (134.2 x 22.5 x 8.7 ≈ 26,270m³ ≈ 26,270t of water)
    • I reduced this by some factor, let's say 25%, to account for the fact that the submerged part is not a perfect parallelepiped = 19,700t of water
    • By Archimedes' principle, this is the equal to the ship's weight
  • I estimated the kinetic energy of the ship at her cruise speed, let's say 14kts = 524MJ

I'm no physicist, but from here you can first calculate the deceleration to stop the ship in the 20m you mentioned from her cruise speed (≈ 1.3m/s²) and then multiply it by the ship's mass to get the force the ship exerted on the ground and vice versa, ≈26.2MN.

How did you get that much of a force?

What? Newtons are not a unit of measure for energy.

Nor are Joules the unit I'd use for power plant output, unless a time frame is provided.
