Simona, another motorist, adds: “I understand the need for the works, but is it possible that we won’t be able to find a less impactful solution? The queues are endless and every day is a nightmare.”
Luca, who uses the ring road for work, complains: “The works are necessary, but traffic management is terrible. We should do the work at night or find a way not to block everything. There are days when I spend more time in line than in the office”.
Scheduled interventions
ATIVA has tried to minimize inconvenience, specifying that the construction sites will have a maximum extension of approximately 1.5 km.
Furthermore, at the crossing points of the busiest junctions, such as Corso Regina Margherita and Collegno SS 24 Var, the extension of the construction sites will be further reduced.
However, the measures taken do not appear to be sufficient to alleviate the frustration of road users. “It’s real chaos. It is not enough to reduce the size of construction sites, better planning is needed to prevent this traffic jam from being created every day”comments Francesca, visibly exasperated.
