Another stretch north of via Aquileia it has also already been contracted but, as he pointed out Paola Barbagliaresponsible for suppression of level crossings and RFI noise abatement, «the works will start later so as not to overlap with the others».
Before placing the barriers one was made acoustic and chromatic study to find the best solutions. As far as colors are concerned, yellow and orange were discarded to focus on green.
