Turin–Milan–Naples–Salerno high-speed network, Brenner base tunnel and Lyon–Turin link under construction, major recovery-plan investment in regional lines and the South.

GROUPE ARROUGÉ studies jobs in Italy case by case: road-rail MEWPs and excavators shipped by road or sea with their certified operators, operators provided on long-distance assignment, training of local teams with AK FORMATION, as a subcontractor to French companies or in partnership with local players.

Our road-rail plant is built for 1,435 mm standard gauge, the gauge in use in Italy; approval by the infrastructure manager is confirmed during the study.
