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”.

  28. My spouse and i skepticism this can be the location for this, but… I have trouble with all of our current the laws of copyright, i believe the way the current approach to government employs the lobby could be the source of it. Our laws and regulations usually do not equally safeguard everybody, that they only secure the actual interests of any rich couple of. Is it possible not necessarily getting to alter how everything is? What percentage on the human population could be roughed up before true alter could be pressed to occur? All of our legal guidelines are actually contorted in addition to sprained to benefit some sort of abundant small section. Example: I’m the property inspector. My family worked as a chef to accomplish reviews if you are intended for four decades. We certainly have often bid incredibly competitively often losing profits to obtain job opportunities wishing that individuals will make each of our profits insurance agencies often the records to ensure we’d get the work with future reviews in addition to being able to do them effortlessly by just changing just what info many of us already had about record. Now this identical system of lawmaking that is definitely protecting the RIAA is actually enabling the title business and the like which have been accumulating illegal copies of our own studies to send out those to men and women accepting affidavits for closings utilizing all of our benefit their benefit and not including us all coming from earning money for the own perspiration job and do the job. Just what troubles me personally most relating to this is always that, 1 day, it will have case on a customer survey many of us do many years ago, which was used for a new afterwards concluding versus our will certainly as well as the surfaces will area next to you for just a work many of us did not perhaps get compensated intended for. Toy trucks written many people within federal government seeking assist in a way just to obtain passive format response or any answer in any way. Romans acquired the item far better 2150 a long time ago. We think all of us stay in the democracy, yet My spouse and i anxiety it is not necessarily obviously any good republic. All of us electoral vote to place a group of Republicans or even Democrats throughout federal government, just to possess our own laws prepared as well as cool to profit any wealthy minority, by means of lobbyists financed by simply in addition to symbolizing a rich few. That exact same government all of us voted for applies a decreased main concern on the purposes with the the greater part, inside the belief that this abundant people are not much more smart as well as a lot more worthy as opposed to majority. I’m reluctant our own government has become really the Aristocracy.
