Italy Approves $15.5 Billion Sicily-Mainland Suspension Bridge
Italy has approved a €13.5 billion project to build the world's longest suspension bridge connecting Sicily to Calabria, aiming to boost economic growth and create jobs, despite environmental, safety, and political challenges. The bridge, spanning 3.3 km with high towers and railway lines, faces potential delays due to legal, environmental, and local opposition concerns, but is considered a significant investment for Italy's future.
