He is indispensable to invest along the Luino-Gallarate axis in order to pick the future advantages of infrastructures of Alptransit



Sussistono risks for the logistic field and, more in general terms, for the Lombardic economy if in Italy the work of completion of the railway axis does not come true North-South, of which one of the key elements it is the adaptation of the Bellinzona-Luino-Gallarate line, where enough a single locomotive in order to haul a train of 2.000 tons. It has evidenced Livio Ambrogio, president of the European Intermodal Association (EIA) and president of Ambrogio Trasporti Spa, intermodal group with center to Gallarate (Varese), anticipating the topics of the convention "the Italian answer to Alptransit", centralized on the perspectives connected to the alpine railway cross-sectional new, that he is promoted by the Chamber of Commerce of Varese and by the Chamber of Commerce Switzerland for Italy and that domattina in the center of the Chamber of Commerce of Varese will hold ( on 20 November 2013).

"Enough a glance to the geographic map - it has found Livio Ambrogio - in order to make an idea on as at best managing the intermodal traffic from and for Italy: we have very little transalpine passes available and accessibility to the Gottardo and the Sempione is essential for our economy, but it is necessary to take advantage of it well".

After the opening of the tunnel of base of the Gottardo, that it is previewed for December 2016, the transit via Luino will introduce a slope until 12 the per thousand one and will be therefore the only true plain railroad on the Genoa-Rotterdam corridor. On the line of Uproar, instead, permarranno of the slopes from the 17 to 21 the per thousand one in the zone of Chiasso and Mendrisio. This means that on this line the international freight trains, although the tunnels of base of the Gottardo and Ashes, will need force of greater traction, that it will weigh on in meaningful way the costs having pulled down the economic and environmental benefits connected to the start of Alptransit.

Besides the problems legacies to the slope, entering in Italy from Uproar it must journey through the metropolitan area of Milan that offers to ability many limiting for the freight trains seen the high density of the traffic fleeting. "The line of Luino - it has evidenced Ambrogio - offers instead remarkable perspectives for the intermodal district to horse between Piemonte and Lombardy, that it counts thousands of places of work. He then becomes indispensable to invest today along the Luino-Gallarate axis in order to pick tomorrow the advantages deriving from the Swiss investments in infrastructures of Alptransit. Memory that every resource spold now tramuterà in economic and social advantage for next the one hundred years".

In the course of the encounter tomorrow the impact of the creation of the multimodale Corridor Italy-Switzerland will be introduced the study of the University Bites "", a search from which emerges the risks for the logistic field and, more in general terms, for the Lombardic economy if in Italy the work of completion of the railway axis does not come true North-South. The convention will be live streaming on the site of the Chamber of Commerce of Varese to the www.va.camcom.it address, where it is still possible to enroll itself online to the convention.
