CASERMA EDERLE, Italy -- The U.S. Army Garrison Italy Directorate of Public Works will soon continue its efforts to make the road system here safer and in conformance with Italian Road Regulations, il Codice della Strada.
The major repair project started in 2016 with repaving and restriping major streets, and replacing aging road signs.
Public Works completed a significant portion of the project in November, and construction work to complete the project will begin early April.
Work areas will be in the center of the community and are necessary to complete the repaving of Olson Avenue and 9th Street. Along with repaving, raised crosswalks will be installed in front of the library, high school, fitness center and Italian Mensa. The crosswalks will remind drivers of the reduced speed limit in these areas.
In response to community feedback, parking along Olson Avenue in front of Barracks 100 and 106, and on 9th Street across from the fitness center, will change from parallel to diagonal parking. The change will double the current number of parking spaces. The remaining parallel parking areas will remove the individual stall markings to allow more cars in the area. (DPW)
