Ambassador Paolo Crudele, accompanied by Consul General Hanna Pappalardo and the leadership of ICCI Melbourne (President Adrian Logiudice and Veronica Misciattelli) visited the construction site of the North East Link (NEL) project, the largest private-public partnership (PPP) for an infrastructure project in Australia.
The project has a strong element of sustainability that will provide an essential link in the City of Melbourne’s freeway network, reducing congestion and travel times. The project is being realized with the contribution of a Webuild-led consortium with the participation of the Trevi Group. Webuild is a global leader in the sustainable infrastructure with a presence in 50 countries, whereas Trevi Group is a world leader in the field of underground engineering.
Ambassador Crudele was welcomed at the construction site by the CEO of the Trevi Group, Giuseppe Caselli, and by the Executive Director for Asia-Pacific of Webuild, Marco Assorati.
NEL is a AU$11.1-billion project and is scheduled to be completed by 2028.
