The viaduct deck, in metallic carpentry, 75 metres long and weighing 500 tonnes, was assembled in the construction site close to via Siffredi and transported, rotated and installed in the designated location. This complex operation required the dedication and commitment of over 200 engineers and highly skilled specialised workers from over 5 companies co-ordinated by the building contractor Pizzarotti.
The project features amongst a range of new road infrastructure planned on-site and along the Sampierdarena port area, with smart dedicated multi-lane heavy vehicle roads set to ease simultaneously both inner port and urban traffic congestion, and the construction of new direct road links between the Port of Genoa terminal facilities and the Milan and Turin-bound A7 and A26 motorways.
