Autostrade per l’Italia announced at 17:00 on 20 October that the planned 21:00–06:00 closure of the Treviso Nord interchange on the A27 Venezia–Belluno motorway has been cancelled due to forecast heavy rain and poor visibility. The works—part of a broader €220 million resurfacing and safety-barrier upgrade—will be rescheduled later in the quarter. For business travellers driving between Venice Marco Polo Airport and the manufacturing districts of Conegliano and Pordenone, the decision avoids a 45-km detour via the A4 and SR53. Night-shift employee shuttles to De’Longhi and Electrolux plants will therefore operate on normal timetables. However, motorists should expect rolling lane closures elsewhere on the A27 as crews reposition equipment. Autostrade’s app and RTL 102.5 Traffic will issue live updates; companies using fleet-management telematics can integrate these feeds via the Mobility API released last month. The incident highlights the increasing volatility of Italy’s autumn weather and its impact on infrastructure works. Firms with time-critical deliveries are advised to subscribe to Autostrade’s free SMS alert service and to include weather clauses in haulage contracts covering the Veneto and Friuli regions.
