Starchitect Renzo Piano’s project, donated to the City, is a magnificent synthesis of elegance and simplicity. Opened on August 3, 2020, less than two years after collapse of the previous one, its steel and cement structure is supported by 18 pillars and was built by Consorzio PerGenova, Fincantieri Infrastructures and WeBuild. Italian Institute of Technology ITT’s robot monitors it constantly.

“This bridge is like a ship, a great white vessel sailing across the valley. The strength of this marvellous country emerged in the most beautiful building site I have followed in my life. This bridge is simple and strong, just like this city.”
