Italy is at a crossroads of infrastructure choices whose effects affect the daily mobility of millions of people<\/strong>. The new Pendolaria<\/strong> Report<\/a> <\/strong>by Legambiente <\/strong>documents a transportation system marked by chronic underfunding <\/strong>and policy choices that the association calls unbalanced.<\/p>\n\n

Legambiente’s analysis focuses, first and foremost, on the gradual depletion of the National Transport Fund<\/strong> (NTF), the main resource for local rail and road public transport. The resources allocated to this fund, the report explains, will be worth 38 per cent less in 2026 than in 2009<\/g>, if inflation is taken into account. The association estimates that in order to return to the real spending levels of more than 15 years ago, at least 3 billion euros more would be needed than what is projected today, a figure that reveals a long-term structural deficit. <\/p>\n\n
