Description
The project consists of the financing of infrastructure schemes in the domains of education, urban renewal and road safety included in the Province’s three-year investment programme 2007-2009.
Objectifs
The project includes investment schemes responding to European objectives, forming part of a coherent development plan oriented at re-launching the Province’s growth and further diversifying its economic structure focusing on domains, where the Province has institutional competences. These include increasing safety and connectivity of the local transport network as well as urban regeneration schemes targeting some historical buildings in Florence, a city classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. A special focus of this operation is to upgrade the Province’s secondary education infrastructure with the aim to ensure high standards of educational performance, thereby promoting the transition to a service-oriented knowledge economy. Moreover, by facilitating commuting flows from the Province’s municipalities to Florence, the Province is encouraging higher economic synergies between the capital and its surrounding areas.
