Summer exodus: Anas, black dot in the first weekend of August

Departures are increasing in the second big weekend of summer exodus. Along the Anas network for the first weekend of August, traffic is expected to increase constantly. Viabilità Italia foresees a black dot in particular tomorrow morning, Saturday 3 August, and a red dot this afternoon, Friday 2 August and on Sunday 4 August: travel is clearly increasing from large urban centers throughout Italy towards holiday resorts, seaside resorts in the south and mountain resorts in the north and towards the state borders.
To allow traffic to flow smoothly, Anas (Fs Italiane Group) has increased the commitment of its staff throughout the country and has limited the presence of construction sites: from tomorrow until September 3, 906 construction sites have been suspended, 70% of those currently active (1278).
The routes affected are, in a southerly direction, the main routes towards holiday resorts, in particular along the Adriatic, Tyrrhenian and Ionian ridges and along the border crossings towards France, Slovenia and Croatia, and when leaving urban centres. A significant flow of traffic is also expected in the vicinity of urban centres, especially starting from late Sunday afternoon, in conjunction with weekend returns. The ban on the transit of heavy vehicles is in force today from 4 pm to 10 pm, tomorrow Saturday 3 August from 8 am to 10 pm and Sunday 4 August from 7 am to 10 pm.
The intensification of traffic may affect the main tourist routes: the A2 “Autostrada del Mediterraneo” which crosses Campania, Basilicata and Calabria; the state roads 106 Jonica and 18 Tirrena Inferiore in Calabria; the A19 Palermo-Catania and A29 Palermo-Mazara del Vallo motorways in Sicily; the state road 131 Carlo Felice in Sardinia; the state road 148 Pontina in Lazio, a particularly busy artery which together with the SS7 “Appia” ensures connections between Rome and the tourist resorts of lower Lazio; the E45 Itinerary (SS675 and SS3 bis) which passes through Umbria, Tuscany, Emilia Romagna and connects the north-east with central Italy; the SS1 Aurelia (Lazio, Tuscany and Liguria), SS16 Adriatica (Puglia, Molise, Abruzzo, Emilia-Romagna and Veneto) routes. To the north, the RA13 and RA14 motorway links in Friuli-Venezia Giulia towards the border crossings, the SS36 of Lake Como and Spluga in Lombardy, the SS45 of Val Trebbia in Liguria, the SS26 of Valle D’Aosta and the SS309 Romea between Emilia-Romagna and Veneto and the SS 51 of Alemagna in Veneto.
For the situation of immovable construction sites, Anas invites travellers to consult the Summer Exodus page on the stradeanas.it website (link https://www.stradeanas.it/it/esodoestivo) before leaving.
Anas has a presence on the road of approximately 2,500 resources in rotation, consisting of technical and operational personnel, in addition to the personnel of the Territorial Operations Rooms and the National Situation Room who ensure real-time traffic monitoring 24 hours a day.
