Infrastructure and road safety initiatives in Italy

Overview

Road maintenance and safety projects have been initiated in various Italian locations. In Asti, extraordinary maintenance on extra-urban municipal roads began in late October, involving asphalt resurfacing and cleaning works for Rio Cipollino.

In Rome, efforts have focused on both physical maintenance and technological safety upgrades. Asphalt resurfacing on Via Mezzocammino is being conducted at night to minimize traffic disruption. Simultaneously, the city is implementing the Black Point program to upgrade high-risk intersections. Rome is also serving as a pilot for the FIA Risk-Based Road Scores system, which uses digital twins and simulations to identify potential traffic conflicts. This technological initiative was recognized with a Mobility Award at the 2026 World Smart City Awards.
