The Municipality of Padua wants to expand its transport network with the construction of a new SIR 2 line and the extension of the existing SIR 3 line.
The design of the extension of the SIR 3 line has been possible thanks to a loan from the Ministry of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility that allocated part of the extraordinary fund to the Municipality of Padua for the design of the works planned by the PUMS.
The route extends mainly on the existing road and in some sections next to it, after the extension of the body of the road. The line has a total length of approximately 5.8 km and provides for about 12/13 stops, including terminals. New infrastructure is planned, in particular a new bridge over the river Bacchiglione (L=110m) and a new bridge over the A13 motorway to be assessed at the PFTE. A terminal is planned at the university center of Agripolis, in the municipality of Legnaro.
Extending Sir 3 means implementing the entire SMART system, an interoperability system to be able to operate the existing SIR 1 and SIR 3 lines and the future SIR 2 line, and, in this case, offering a service to the thousands of commuters who commute every day to and from Padua, such as students and staff on Agripolis’ university campus.
