Genoa – Hitachi Rail announces in a statement that it has completed the signaling system for the new railway line of the Progetto Unico Terzo Valico dei Giovi: nodo di Genova, also known as the Quadruplicamento Voltri-Sampierdarena. ‘The project – the statement explains – offers, on the Voltri-Sampierdarena section, an alternative route for long-distance trains and allows for the improvement of traffic on the coastal section, which can be more specifically dedicated to urban metropolitan traffic.
