(ANSA) - Milan, August 21 - The board of Autostrade per
l'Italia on Tuesday approved a 500 million euro plan with its
own resources in the wake of the Genoa bridge collapse that
killed 43 people last Wednesday.
The plan, already announced at a Saturday press conference in
Genoa, includes initiatives for the families struck by the
tragedy, for the reconstruction of the bridge, for Genoa's road
transit system and the suspension of tolls on certain routes,
the board said in a statement.
The Italian government is seeking to strip Autostrade, which
is controlled by the Benetoon family through the Atlantai group,
of its license to operate Italy's highways.
