A 30m section of the A6 Autostrada dei Fiori (E717) route was wrecked by a mudslide. Emergency workers said that no vehicles were washed away by the collapse, which occurred around 1.5km from Savona in Liguria. This section of highway connects Savona with Turin and is managed by ASTM, a division of Gruppo Gavio. A single lane bridge will be built as a temporary replacement for the two lane viaduct and this is expected to take three to four months to complete.
Also in Liguria, a 20km stretch of the A26 (E25) route that connects Genoa and Gravellona Toce has been closed. There are concerns that the Pecetti and Fado Nord viaducts are at risk of collapse due to the extreme weather conditions.
