One billion euros is the total amount of Autostrade per l’Italia investment, to shorten the connection between northern and mid Italy in the Barberino del Mugello-Firenze Nord highway section. The new tunnel, which has taken the name of Santa Lucia, is the icon of this amazing work: its 7.548 metres in length give it the primacy of three lane longest European tunnel. The brand-new tunnel allows to reduce the driving time by about 30% and the CO2 emissions as well.
