Construction of a 32-km dual 3-lane (2x3), toll motorway by-passing the City of Mestre, designed to flank an existing and highly congested road by-pass.
Objectives
The project forms part of the trans-European network (TEN-T) providing the main East - West motorway corridor across Northern Italy from Milan to Udine. It is expected to substantially improve the flow of passengers and freight traffic through the area by providing the extra capacity needed close to Mestre.
