The A7 motorway through Genoa might be one of the wildest highways in Europe, with split carriageways, tunnels, viaducts, acoustic galleries, and a spaghetti junction squeezed into a narrow valley above the port. In this video, we look at why Genoa’s geography, the old 1930s Camionale truck road, and the later motorway upgrade created such an unconventional highway alignment. From the Apennine Mountains to Genova Ovest, this is what happens when one of Italy’s most important port cities has almost no room for infrastructure.
