Ligurian motorways were hit by fresh
road traffic chaos amid works on tunnel maintenance on Tuesday.
There was a 14-km tailback on the A26 near Genoa.
On the A10, not far away, there was a 3km tailback.
The civil protection department told police to be ready to
distribute water to motorists given the sweltering July heat.
It was the second straight day of long tailbacks on motorways
near Genoa.
On Monday Liguria Governor Giovanni Toti said the situation was
the result of a "war" between the government and motorway
company ASPI which allegedly started after the collapse of
Genoa's Morandi bridge in mid-August 2018, killing 43 people.
ASPI's concessions are still being reviewed.
ASPI is a part of the Benetton-controlled Atlantia group.
