### International project

**New bridges fostering connections toward modern infrastructure.**

Adriatic Railway is the railroad linking the northern cities of Po valley with
the most important productive areas of central and southern Italy until Apulia:
it runs along the Adriatic Coast and represents a backbone of Italian
transportation network. Built in 1860s, the railroad passed under control of
Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI) and experienced several expansions leading to
the present double-track layout. The increased transportation needs of recent
years are now requiring an upgrade process characterized by strengthening or
substitution of critical structures, in order to bring travel speed to 200km/h.
Within this context, RFI has appointed SYSTRA SWS for designing the full
replacement of three bridges and the associated civil works in the cities of
Fano and Senigallia.
