“We pay great attention to stations, which represent the gateways to our cities,” declared the CEO and General Manager of RFI, Gianpiero Strisciuglio. “Our goal is to improve the travel experience of passengers. In the last twelve months we have already awarded tenders for station redevelopment works for a total value of approximately 960 million euros”.
The station redevelopment activities are part of a broader plan implemented by RFI to respond to the needs of the community and institutional stakeholders.
RFI's commitment to improving Italian railway stations is concrete and constant, with the aim of making them increasingly modern, efficient and welcoming places for all travellers.
