Autostrade per l’Italia announced on 28 June that it will shut both directions of the A10 Genoa–Savona motorway between the A26 junction and Arenzano for tunnel inspections from 22:00 on 1 July to 06:00 on 2 July, and again—Arenzano to A26—between 00:00 and 06:00 on 3 July. The stretch carries a high volume of airport shuttles to Genoa Cristoforo Colombo as well as freight bound for the Ligurian ports.

For international travellers whose itineraries may be affected by these disruptions and who need to handle last-minute visa formalities, VisaHQ offers fast online processing for Italy and more than 200 other destinations. Their platform (https://www.visahq.com/italy/) allows you to check entry requirements, submit applications and track real-time status updates, making it easier to stay compliant even when road closures force sudden changes to your travel plans.
Traffic will be diverted via the coastal SS1 Aurelia or routed onto the A26 with a mandatory exit at Masone, adding at least 40 minutes to the usual 20-minute run. The parking area ‘Terrarossa Sud’ will be inaccessible during works. Live updates will go out on RAI Isoradio, RTL 102.5 Traffic, motorway VMS panels and the operator’s Telegram channel. Although the window is overnight, the closure coincides with late-evening arrivals from Rome and early-morning cargo departures. Freight forwarders moving perishables from the Vado Ligure reefers terminal should confirm alternative slots, while mobility teams meeting expatriate employees on red-eye flights should warn them of potential taxi surcharges. Autostrade says the inspection forms part of an accelerated gallery-safety programme triggered by EU Directive 2024/329; more overnight closures are expected through August. Companies with corporate fleets registered for Telepass can request reimbursement for deviation kilometres under the ‘cashback per cantiere’ scheme introduced last year. Practical tip: travellers connecting from Genoa to Milan airports between 1–3 July should budget extra time or consider the InterCity rail service, which is unaffected by the works.
