A telephone pole fallen for about two months keeps the wiring at ground level at the entrance of the Josep Brugulat institute in Banyoles, a situation that has generated concern among the educational community and neighbors due to safety at one of the accesses to the center.
More than 1,100 people pass through this point every day including students, teachers, administration and services staff, and families. The concern focuses on the continuous passage of people in an area where the wiring remains on the ground since the fall of the structure.
Concern about access to the center
The school management has been demanding for weeks from the Banyoles City Council the removal of the pole. The risk, according to what is conveyed from the school's environment, especially affects the entry and exit times, when a larger volume of students and teaching staff gathers.
From the center itself, it is warned that the situation poses a potential risk of falls, trips, or incidents, especially in periods of high influx. The location of the wiring in an intensively used space has maintained the concern for weeks.
Planned action for the next day
Sources from the institute and the Banyoles City Council confirm that the intervention is already planned. The repair is announced for the following day, with the expectation that the company responsible for the wiring will come to resolve the incident.

A neighbor who has reported the situation maintains that the lack of effective action to remove or definitively secure the structure has caused the problem to drag on over time. She also points out that the fact that the wiring does not present an immediate electrical risk does not eliminate the safety problem due to its location and the intensive use of that access.
The neighborhood complaint calls for a coordinated and urgent intervention between the City Council and the company that owns the facility to guarantee adequate and safe access conditions at the institute's entrance, awaiting the announced action to put an end to an incident that has lasted for weeks.
