Emilia-Romagna security and road safety initiatives

The Emilia-Romagna region has implemented several security and safety projects. In October 2026, the “Mobilità Sicura” project was launched to establish a coordinated model for road traffic control. This initiative involves multiple law enforcement agencies, including the State Police, Carabinieri, and Guardia di Finanza, using patrol services and joint inter-force operations to combat dangerous driving.

By November 2026, the focus expanded to urban security and livability through agreements with local municipalities. In Ravenna, investments were allocated for infrastructure improvements, such as LED lighting, surveillance cameras, and social mediation near the bus station. In Cervia, the “SicuriCervia Tritone” project was launched following the murder of Nicola Musiani. This plan includes redevelopment of Parco delle Dune, enhanced video surveillance, and the introduction of street tutors to manage social risks and conflict de-escalation in nightlife areas.

On November 7, 2026, the Emilia-Romagna Region and the Municipality of Modena approved a program agreement to enhance urban security through an integrated prevention project. With a total investment of 960,000 euros, the initiative targets an area spanning from the Modena bus station to Novi Sad Park. The plan includes the redevelopment of an integrated outpost for the Local Police and the State Police, alongside technological and structural interventions. Social measures will involve strengthening street education, mediation services, and the use of Street Tutors and School Tutors. The program also aims to increase anti-bullying controls and engage local associations to address urban decay and marginalization.
