Notícias - MARKING A FIRST IN ITALY: WIRTGEN COLD RECYCLER AND SOIL STABILIZER WR 250 REHABILITATING A4

The first WR 250 delivered to Italy was put to work on the A4 Turin-Trieste highway, one of the busiest roads in Europe, and it turned out to be exceptionally productive.

The A4 Autostrada is a highway linking Turin to Trieste via Milan and Venice. Cutting across northern Italy from west to east, it runs for a total of 522 km. The A4 is divided into five segments, the Turin-Milan, Milan-Brescia, Brescia-Padua, Padua-Venice and Venice-Trieste, and is managed by different companies. Stretching across the entire Po River Valley, one of the most densely populated and industrialized areas of Europe, the A4 is also one of the most highly trafficked highways on the continent with transit of over 115 million vehicles in 2013. Local, national and international transport all account for the high rate of traffic, since the A4 is the fastest and most direct route for vehicles travelling from Portugal, Spain and France in the direction of Austria, Slovenia and other European countries beyond Italy’s eastern border.
