A ponte da discórdia

Sylvia Colombo

Passei uns dias na badalada costa uruguaia, que no verão vira ponto de encontro de celebridades, artistas e endinheirados em geral, principalmente argentinos, uruguaios e, cada vez com mais frequência, brasileiros. A história que mais me chamou a atenção foi a polêmica da ponte da Laguna Garzón, porque guarda muitas semelhanças com relação ao modo como progresso e sustentabilidade caminham na costa brasileira.

A Laguna Garzón é um cenário deslumbrante, ao lado da exclusiva praia de José Ignacio, que virou o lugar mais hype dos arredores de Punta del Este. Divide dois departamentos (Estados) uruguaios, Rocha e Maldonado. Hoje, o transporte de um lado para outro é feito por meio de precárias balsas de madeira, que por seu tamanho e frequência reduzidos, acabam fazendo com que seja trabalhoso cruzar e, com isso, deixam o lado de lá mais desértico, e mais belo.

Nos últimos anos, porém, empresários do meio imobiliário começaram a propor que se construísse uma ponte para facilitar o acesso. Entre os que comandam essa iniciativa está o criador do Malba (Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires), o argentino Eduardo Costantini, mais conhecido entre os brasileiros por ser o comprador da tela “Abaporu”, de Tarsila do Amaral.

Desde então, vários projetos surgiram, alguns mais, outros menos agressivos ao ambiente. Acabou sendo escolhido o do arquiteto Rafael Viñoly, autor de alguns desenhos famosos no Uruguai, como o do aeroporto de Carrasco, em Montevidéu.

Grupos de moradores e comerciantes da área são contra. Dizem que a ponte causará uma ocupação imobiliária desenfreada na região, além de causar impacto na fauna local. Desde 2009, quando surgiu o projeto, vêm aparecendo nos meios para pedir ajuda contra o empreendimento. “Para mim a ponte é um erro porque, se alcança um dos objetivos de realçar esse lugar, o impacto visual é muito grande e escapa ao racional”, diz Guzmán Artagaveytia, um dos proprietários do La Huella, o mais importante restaurante de José Ignacio. As reclamações contra a ponte incluem desde habitantes da região a políticos de esquerda e direita, como o senador Pedro Bordaberry, que acusou o governo da Frente Ampla, do presidente José “Pepe” Mujica de estar fazendo demasiadas concessões à indústria do turismo.

O projeto prevê uma ponte circular apoiada em 16 pilares, que permitem a navegação por baixo dela e, segundo o arquiteto, a livre circulação da água e dos peixes. A iluminação será baixa, na tentativa de causar o menor impacto visual possível, e não será permitido o trânsito de veículos pesados.

Apesar das pesadas críticas, o projeto foi aprovado pelo órgão responsável pelo ambiente no Uruguai, a construção deve começar em julho e o custo, de cerca de US$ 5 milhões, deve ser financiado por Costantini.

O turismo hoje responde a 8% do PIB do pequeno Uruguai. Segundo Mujica, trata-se da “galinha dos ovos de ouro” do país. O problema é que, para incrementar essa indústria, o presidente, seu partido e as autoridades locais, ligadas a ele, não têm levado em consideração a opinião dos habitantes. Na tarde da última terça-feira, caminhando por José Ignacio em direção à Lagoa, conversei com um casal de italianos que vem todos os anos ao Uruguai para passar as férias. “Se o Uruguai quer parecer a Florida, é bom ter claro que mudará o público que o frequenta, sem agradar quem mora aqui. É bom pensar bem”.

  18. Because of ()z from Walk twenty second. Without a doubt previously worked a goody in addition to saved us a lot of looking at in addition to seeking. I really didn’t know their own uploads/downloads would be p2p. I run peerguardian along with a couple ip’s held turning up (blocked admittedly). We were holding BSky Udem?rket with 193. 195. 115. 136 and also Displaying Growing media about 193. 114. 117. 134. These kinds of are each absent now therefore happy many thanks. There are not a problem with Sky with this challenge actually although a few the populace genuinely didn’t can locate some sort of repair ore even realize there was clearly a problem. Anyway, thanks for the help I have just found Kservice hiding in the equipment following trying to shift Heavens Simply by Broadband from one appliance to a different. Only to say that I had formed event for you to diamond ring Stones technological assist many times during the process (and have not been successful in doing it yet).

  22. My partner and i uncertainty here is the place with this, however… I have trouble with each of our present copyright laws, and that i believe the way in which each of our existing system of government employs the lobby will be the source of the idea. Our regulations will not equally safeguard all people, many people just protect the particular hobbies of your wealthy number of. Exists not necessarily getting to alter just how things are? What portion of the population can be beat up prior to actual adjust might be pressed to take place? Our rules have been contorted and sprained to learn some sort of loaded small section. Example: I’m a property inspector. My loved ones worked to carry out surveys for individuals intended for 4 decades. We now have often bet very competitively at times losing money to obtain work wishing that we will make each of our revenue insurance agencies the information so we would receive the help potential studies in addition to being able to accomplish these people simply by simply changing just what details many of us previously possessed about record. This similar system of lawmaking that is definitely shielding often the RIAA is allowing the title business yet others which are gathering duplicates of our online surveys in order to deliver them how to folks acknowledging affidavits for closings using our benefit their own income and taking out us from being profitable for the unique sweat job and also function. Precisely what affects me personally almost all relating to this is the fact, at some point, you will see case with a review most of us have ages in the past, that was utilized for a later on closing against each of our may along with the legal courts will probably part against people for just a job we did not perhaps get paid regarding. We have composed most people throughout federal government asking for assist in getting simply to be given unaggressive web template responds or any answer whatsoever. Romans had this much better 2200 in years past. Good most of us reside in the democracy, however We concern it is far from obviously any good republic. Most of us votes that will put a team of Republicans or perhaps Democrats throughout government, and then get all of our rules composed in addition to reformed to benefit any loaded few, by simply lobbyists financed by simply as well as symbolizing a wealthy few. This kind of similar federal government many of us voted intended for sets a decreased priority for the needs on the the greater part, in the perception that this wealthy people are not far more smart as well as more deserving as opposed to bulk. I’m worried our federal government happens to be really a good Aristocracy.
