RFI CEO and general manager Maurizio Gentile said: “The assignment of the works of the railway line connecting the urban areas of Brescia and Verona, which are integral part of the TEN-T Mediterranean Core Corridor, represents a tangible contribution to the reopening of construction sites and once again demonstrates the strong commitment of the main contracting station in Italy.

“This infrastructure will support the promotion of sustainable mobility in the Country, allowing also to increase the capacity and regularity of rail transportation, lower travel times and increase trains frequency.”

In 2018, the consortium was contracted by the Rete Ferroviaria Italiana to build the first route section of the Brescia-Verona subsection.
