Project Description

The design concerns the variant roads to Cameriano and Orfengo on the regional road 11 of “Padana Superiore”, between km 83+437 and Km 88+750, in the Casalino municipality, located in the western part of the Novara plane, near the border of the Vercelli province. The structure is included in the realization of the connection between A4, east of Novara, and A26, near Borgo Vercelli, and it completes the road lacking. The new structure concerns the construction of a layout variant on the regional road 11, representing a by-pass of Orfengo and Cameriano towns, so as to reduce incidents, pollution and vibrations due to heavy traffic, and to eliminate internal and transit traffic conflicts.

The design envisages the elimination of junctions that are not duly canalized by the main viability, and the introduction of three roundabouts for the positioning of intersections between the new infrastructure and the existing viability.

The design was conceived safeguarding the complex rice-field basins water system existing in this particular context, in which the new road runs, and using a simple but secure system for collecting and depurating platform waters.
