Legal challenges have emerged regarding major infrastructure projects in Italy. In one instance, the Rome Court of Appeal overturned previous rulings concerning the A2 motorway section between Mileto and Rosarno, determining there was no state financial damage related to hydrogeological risk assessments and design choices.

Concurrently, the Garibaldi Bridge project in Senigallia is facing opposition. Environmental associations and local figures, including Maurizio Mangialardi, have filed appeals to the Council of State. Opponents argue the project threatens the urban and landscape integrity of the historic city center and suggest that technical alternatives, such as a lower bridge with lifting systems, were overlooked in the approved plans.
