“The Contract – highlighted the governor Attilio Fontana – puts down on paper fundamental works strongly desired by the Region and for which we worked hard to ensure that they were included in the programming of the state company Anas. We listened to the territories and acted as interpreters of their needs. These are strategic interventions that will make traffic in Lombardy more efficient for the benefit of citizens and the economic-productive system”.
“The inclusion of the works in the Anas Contract – underlined the Infrastructure Councilor Claudia Maria Terzi– represents a guarantee with respect to obtaining the financing necessary for their implementation. Several works have already been financed and contracted, others will be in the coming years. As a Region we will continue to monitor the progress of the interventions and work with the Government to achieve common objectives. Furthermore, the Anas Cdp is a flexible tool that can be updated and integrated with further interventions. Let’s not forget that the road infrastructures financed with a view to the 2026 Olympics are also added to the works included in the document, works functional to the Games but also essential and necessary for the Lombardy road system”.
“The Cipess – stated the Undersecretary of State Alessandro Morelli – approved the new Mit-Anas 2021-2025 program contract, with which a complex list of works worth 22.5 billion euros already allocated, useful for the country’s infrastructural development, will be financed. Overall, Anas in Lombardy has activated investments worth 4 billion euros. 1 billion is intended for the scheduled maintenance of existing roads. Specifically, among the main investments already financed we remember the connection works between the SS 11 in Magenta and the Milan West Ring Road – Abbiategrasso variant and adaptation of the Abbiategrasso Vigevano section up to the bridge over the Ticino river: 1st section from Magenta in Vigevano – Section A. Lombardy can count on important resources for the redevelopment, strengthening of the road network, for the improvement of transport, its safety, maintenance and expansion”.
