(ANSA) - TRIESTE, 01 GIU - The Italian Republic Day holiday
could affect traffic along the Autovie Venete highway network.
The concessionaire predicted three 'red dot days' (today,
Monday, June 5, and Tuesday, June 6) due to the combined effect
of commercial vehicles traveling to and from northern Italy and
the first vacationers who, taking advantage of the three-day
holiday, will head to the Friulian and Veneto seaside resorts.
Consequently, the traffic is expected to become heavy this
afternoon on the Mestre bypass (A57) and the A4 towards Trieste
with large influxes of tractor-trailer trucks, especially on the
A4, heading towards Central and Eastern Europe, before the
circulation ban that will be put in place on Friday, June 2
(Republic Day) from 07 a.m. to 10 p.m.
On Friday, June 2, and Saturday, June 3 - particularly during
the morning - heavy traffic is expected in both directions of
the A4, with possible traffic jams near toll booths and seaside
junctions. However, Sunday 4 is expected to be quiet - when the
ban on heavy vehicles from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. will be back in
force - with increasing traffic in the afternoon towards Venice
due to tourists and seaside commuters returning.
Commercial vehicles with shipments to northern Italy will
depart on Monday and Tuesday. Along the Trieste-Venice route of
the A4, traffic will be heavy on both days, with a possible
increase in the morning of Monday 5 and in the afternoon of
Tuesday 6, when the last tractor-trailers from Eastern Europe
will arrive.
Autovie Venete recommends that road users respect speed
limits, maintain safe distances from vehicles ahead, especially
near the third lane construction sites, and not use electronic
devices while driving. It also invites people to inform
themselves about the traffic situation through the message
signs, and the website www.infoviaggiando.it (ANSA).
