Financing is in place for key Italian highway

In Italy funding is being found to finance work to the Livorno-Civitavecchia highway. Some €2 billion worth of private funding is to be made available for the Livorno-Civitavecchia highway project. This funding stream is being set in place due to framework changes being made by CIPE, the Italian interdepartmental committee for economic planning. This will now pave the way for banks to fund the project. Construction works are already underway on a 15km section of the highway.
