Italian Brenner extension takes shape


The construction of the EUR 1.15 billion Verona-Fortezza line has taken a step forward. The Italian infrastructure manager RFI has published the call for tender for the final design and execution of the section of the line between Fortezza and Ponte Gardena. It covers around 22.5 km of new railway line. The line travels through two twin-tube tunnels, Scaleres and Gardena.

 

The new Fortezza-Ponte Gardena line is the natural continuation of the Brenner base tunnel and adds to the general strengthening of the Verona-Munich axis as part of the TEN-T Scandinavia-Mediterranean European railway freight corridor. The section will come into use at the same time as the Brenner base tunnel is opened, which is expected in 2025. (ben)
