A few years ago, on these pages, I would recite the de profundis for the Seguret gallery (or the Saracens) and the military route 79 of the Pramand. It had just been closed to transit by the Turin Military Engineers Command, because it threatened to crash, with serious damage to the transit of cars, motorcycles or pedestrians. There was the threat – real, it was not just a rumor – that the military, then owners of the rolling stock, wanted to close the tunnel forever by making it shine with the mines. Thus protecting itself from any responsibility.
