The railways are very big and widespread part of the transport in this part of the country. It allows the inhabitants to travel freely and also to transport many goods and commodities, also gives a job for hundreds of people. A lot of people working in Bari do not live within the city borders, so it is crucial for them to reach their workplace, mainly due to the railways. Therefore, railways constitute a major urban network, which largely determines the development of the city. This part of infrastructure is visible, we can see the railways, wires and installations. However, life in the immediate vicinity of the railways is very troublesome, especially because of huge noise. In addition, trains going through the city can make everything vibrating, even furniture in apartments. Over several years the city government has strengthened protection in the vicinity of the railway track to ensure people's safety and prevent accidents. The development of the city in the future should focus on protecting both railways and residents, and to improve living conditions in this area.
