The project
The project, which is of particular importance, is part of an ambitious expansion and renovation programme promoted by Autostrade del Brennero. The works are part of Ala-Avio (TN) motorway junction on the Brennero motorway and include the renovation of the motorway station (the number of lanes will be increased from three to six) and the Motorway Safety Service center (MSSC) in Ala-Avio, including the construction of a car park for motorway users. Special attention is given to the regular road system, in particular to the square of the current intersection, namely the construction of a roundabout connecting to S.P. 90 over “Biffis” channel via two bridges with a mixed steel and concrete structure. The new roundabout will accommodate all traffic to and from the bus station, to and from the user car parking and to and from the CSA, avoiding any possible crossing of the station forecourt. The works also include widening the acceleration lane on the southbound carriageway, a functional intervention for the use of the dynamic third lane. The works programme, with traffic maintained at the motorway exit and entry points, involves carrying out the works in several stages.
