Route
The A27 begins east of Venice, where it branches off from the ring road di Mestre. Originally it was also the motorway to Venice Airport Branch of the A27. This is since 2009, however, part of the A57.
The highway is expanded to six lanes, past Mogliano Veneto it reaches the node with the A4 at km 6.4. Next slightly to the northeast it reaches the province of Treviso and Conegliano capital. Here there is a connection to the A28 motorway. It was opened on October 23, 2010.
The highway is expanded only four lanes from Conegliano and continues north to Vittorio Veneto. To the north it reaches the Alps and at km 84.0 finally Ponte nelle Alpi. From here roads lead on to Belluno, the Strada Statale 51 di Alemagna in the Cadore and Cortina d' Ampezzo, and the SP 251 to Zoldo Valley.
Buildings on the A27
In the section between Venice and Vittorio Veneto, there are, apart from minor bridges crossing rivers, as used for example, the Piave, no art buildings.
The section from Vittorio Veneto to the end of the highway is already in the Alps. Therefore to pass the route numerous tunnels and bridges were built. The longest tunnel in the distance is the La Cave. He has been in the direction of travel south a length of 3790 m, in the direction of travel North 3153 m. The two longest bridges, Fadalto, are located in this section. You can reach a total length of 3567 m (south) and 3485 m (north). Of the total 82.5 kilometers lie towards Venice 8.5 km in tunnels, Belluno direction it is 7.1 km.
History
The highway was released in 1978 to Vittorio Veneto to traffic and tied the towns of Conegliano, Treviso, Vittorio Veneto on to the Italian motorway network. In 1995 the extension up to Ponte nelle Alpi. On this section also several viaducts and tunnels are more than 1000m in length.
Continued construction
It is intended first and then the highway to Cadore east over Tolmezzo to A23 Tarvisio - Udine to extend / Palma Nova.
Route Belluno - Tolmezzo
Overall, the planned route is 85 km long, of which 42 km are to be carried out in tunnels and 6.4 km of bridges; the route is divided into 3 sections.
- End of the motorway A27 - Pieve di Cadore - Caralte: 22 km, half of them in the tunnel
- Caralte - Forni di Sopra 22.8 km, including 18 km in tunnel
- Forni di Sopra - Tolmezzo (A23 ) 39.5 km, 12.3 km in tunnel
There are 6 planned interchanges. The entire route is expected to cost 3 billion euros.
The first section is expected to cost 400 million euros. The volume of traffic on this section is by 2015 from the current 15-20 thousand vehicles per day, up to 32 - 38 thousand increase. Here, the connection points are Longarone and Macchietto - Pian de l' Abate planned. Of the 22 km planned kilometers, 10.7 kilometers to the south, and extending 11.5 kilometers north to the tunnel.
In early 2012, it gave the green light by the Regional Government of Veneto and the Italian Ministry of Environment. The 22- km long section will be advertised throughout Europe and an operator who then awarded the concession sought. Construction will take four years and to the current plan is that the end 2016/Anfang be completed in 2017.
Proponents and opponents of this track version of the Alemagna
Proponents of the project point out that with the planned motorway the province of Belluno is better connected to the remaining parts of the Veneto region, as well as better to Europe. The connection is not only particularly forward for an extension direction and Austria with Tolmezzo and the A23, but will also bring economic boom in the Cadore. Moreover, should be curbed by expanding the congestion along the Strada Statale 51 di Alemagna, particularly in the winter when many tourists visit the ski resort of Cortina d' Ampezzo and nearby there.
There is already opposition to the planned further construction, especially on the part of WWF and residents on the intended route. They fear the construction of the highway damage to the natural surroundings along the planned route in the Tagliamento and an increase in transit traffic.
The former President of the Veneto region, Giancarlo Galan (PDL ) and Friuli Venezia Giulia, Riccardo Illy, advocated the extension of the A27 to Tolmezzo. However, the incumbent since 2010 President of the Veneto Region Luca Zaia is against this construction. According to him, the project is nothing more than a " Copernican revolution for north-south connections ." Also, the South Tyrolean Luis Durnwalder rejected the plans from: The Alpine Convention provides that no new transalpine roads be built. The proposed extension would violate these Alpine Convention.
The Alpine Club warned in July 2010 before renewal of Alemagna to Dobbiaco. " If the highway in Dobbiaco, one can imagine the traffic avalanche as rolls toward East Tyrol and Spittal, Peter Hasslacher told, responsible for spatial planning in the Alpine Club.
Whether the Alemagna is really extended up to Tolmezzo, it is currently unclear as the financing of the portion of Pieve di Cadore up to Tolmezzo is uncertain because the agency responsible for highway construction ANAS has provided no money for a crossing of the Alps. Even though the highway should be extended until Tolmezzo, the establishment of a tunnel is still under the Plöckenpass in question since the Felbertauernstraße to be extended south. The plan is a 3.2 km long summit tunnel. It qualifies under the Carinthian Governor Gerhard Dörfler an opening of the route for the transit of the question.
The Italian government in Rome confirmed the end of July 2010 that currently take place no talks about a " trans-Alpine route " between Italy, Austria and Germany.
The person responsible for the construction and management of highway Società per l' autostrada Alemagna Spa ( owned by the Veneto Region ), headquartered in Venice has the task to manage the motorway Venice - Munich.
Originally planned route Belluno -Zillertal -Munich
Originally, the A27 via Cortina d' Ampezzo Dobbiaco and Brunico should lead Ahrntal. From the Ahrntal there were two variants: in the first variant, the Inn valley motorway was to be achieved over the Zillertal. The second variant saw a connection through Gerlos Brixental before to reach in this way the Inn Valley. With both variants, a new crossing of the Alps would have been created and created a direct connection between Venice and Munich. Later, the further construction was only planned to Dobbiaco. The fact that the Pusteria road and the Drau Valley Road in the expansion are, nevertheless a powerful connection to the new highway would be present west to the Brenner motorway and to the east of the Tauern motorway.
Against the planned extension of the original Alemagna there was in the late 1990s resistance in South and East Tyrol.
