Italian municipalities approve a wave of local infrastructure upgrades FAST-MOVING

Several Italian local authorities have approved funding and plans for a range of infrastructure projects. The Crema city council approved a €1 million redesign of Viale Europa, adding a mini‑roundabout, new bike‑pedestrian paths and green landscaping. Genoa completed the “Assi di forza” transport programme, securing the full €497 million allocation for electric buses and related facilities. The Umbria region allocated €2 million for a new roundabout at Quattrotorri, while the Alba municipality opened the Scaparoni roundabout to traffic on a partial basis. Additional works include sewer network restrictions in Saronno, night‑time closures on the A1 motorway near Monte San Savino, a new public pool in Piombino, and the conversion of private land to public green space in Perugia. Other projects involve road safety upgrades in Cori, a new rotunda in Santena, and the launch of a co‑design process for a humanitarian services centre in Olbia. Funding sources range from regional budgets, national recovery plans, and EU‑linked programmes, with total investments amounting to several hundred million euros across the country.
