ROME (Reuters) – Italy’s cabinet will meet on Monday to discuss a dispute over Atlantia’s motorway concession, a government source told Reuters.
Rome has been threatening to revoke the toll road licence held by Atlantia’s Autostrade per l’Italia since a bridge it operated in Genoa collapsed in August 2018, killing 43 people.
The government on Thursday asked Atlantia, controlled by the Benetton family, to come up with a proposal by the weekend to try to save its lucrative contract.
