Piedmont launches AI project to reduce smog amid various Italian local works
Various Italian municipalities and the Piedmont region are implementing diverse local infrastructure and environmental projects.
Piedmont is launching a €11.5 million experimental project using artificial intelligence to optimize urban traffic and reduce smog emissions, starting in Turin by late 2026.
In other regions, several cities are undertaking maintenance and urban renewal works. Pisa has begun a €1.7 million regeneration project for the Villaggio Cento Fiori complex. Alghero is conducting structural maintenance on the Bastioni Colombo. Saluzzo is working on stabilizing support walls in via Santa Chiara, while Udine is completing paving and accessibility upgrades in via Santa Chiara and via Gemona.
Environmental and social initiatives include Latina’s efforts to increase soil permeability and urban greenery to combat heat islands, and Giarre’s reclamation of public green spaces. In Vicenza, new works are underway to improve cycling and pedestrian safety near schools. Additionally, Barberino Tavarnelle is completing a major €5 million sewage system upgrade, and Ferrandina has approved a €10 million project for a new road link between the Basentana highway and Macchia di Ferrandina.
