These are two webinar mode events organized by CNI, in synergy with SIIV, as part of in-depth technical meetings on the topics of“The design of upgrading works of existing road infrastructure.” The design of retrofitting of existing roads presents designers with many challenges in relation, above all, to the contextual constraints that can affect their technical choices as well as to an often obsolete and not fully defined regulatory framework.
The two online conferences aim to provide participants, through the presentation of case studies, with some methodological insights and application guidance inherent to retrofitting interventions in urban and suburban areas.
Module 1 | Upgrading of existing road infrastructure in suburban areas – Tuesday, September 5, 2023 | 3:00-6:00 p.m.
