Roma
si trasforma

The “Un tetto con cura” project aims to provide long-term temporary assistance, up to 24 months, through the provision of accommodation in flats located in small groups in the area. This solution is aimed at individuals, small groups or families in situations of extreme hardship, who cannot immediately access public housing and who require continuous support. An individualised project, aimed at activating the personal resources of the individual or the family unit, will foster paths to autonomy and capacity-building.

Projects will focus on several aspects, including:

• individual paths to overcome the emergency situation;
• accompaniment and coordination with territorial services for long-term planning;
• cooperation with other institutions, such as prison facilities, justice services and the judiciary.

In view of the Jubilee 2025, Roma Capitale is organising various maintenance and improvement works on pavements to optimise the pedestrian traffic throughout the city, facilitating the movement of pilgrims and tourists. Each of Rome's 15 municipalities will be responsible for resurfacing local pavements, with a focus on connections between neighbourhoods. A budget of 15 million euro is planned for the work, which will be allocated through a framework agreement to simplify procedures. The interventions will include the redevelopment of existing pavements with furniture elements such as pedestrian barriers or flower boxes, the removal of architectural barriers with the addition of ramps, and the maintenance of sensitive routes.

Line C, Rome's third subway under the new Town General Plan, will directly connect distant areas by crossing the city from northwest to southeast, so greatly extending the existing metro network. The current route, which is 25.5 km long and includes 30 stations, begins in the municipality of Monte Compatri, follows the Termini-Pantano railway, crosses underground just before the Grande Raccordo Anulare and heads into the historic centre to the Mazzini district, keeping about 30 m above street level.

The route is divided into various sections: T2 under design, T3 under construction, T4-T5, T6 and T7 with the Granite Depot already operational. This division results from functional reasons, design needs, approvals and funding. T2 section will include a functional sub-section: the Venezia-Colosseum/Imperial Fora section, which will extend beyond the end of Section T3 for about 250 m. It includes the Venezia Station, the fire station shaft and railway communication between odd and even track. The final design of the Venezia-Imperial Fora sub-section, including the Venezia Station, was submitted to the Conference of Services in July 2021, including the positive outcome of the verification of compliance with VIA (EIA) requirements.

The financing of the total amount of € 755,000,000.00 is ensured for € 145,000,000.00 by Decree Law No. 133 of 12 September 2014, coordinated with Conversion Law No. 164 of 11 November 2014, and for € 610,000,000.00 by the resources referred to in paragraph 393 of Article 1 of Law No. 234 of 30 December 2021 (Budget Law 2022) allocated by Interministerial Decree No. 97 of 20 April 2022.

The final design of T2 Section Venezia-Imperial Fora/Colosseum sub-section was approved by Order No. 3 of 30 December 2022 prot.l79/M of the Extraordinary Commissioner. By Service Order No. 35 of 17/01/2023, the Sole Project Manager (RUP) ordered the start of the executive design activities, based on the approved final design drawings, taking into account the requirements attached to the Technical Verification Minutes, and subjected the start of the work to the approval for the three parts of the executive design.

The first part of the executive project of the Venezia-Colosseum/Imperial Fora section was delivered by the General Contractor Metro C S.c.p.A. on 13/02/2023 and 17/02/2023 and was then supplemented with the additional submissions on 18.04.2023.

This was followed by the delivery of the drawings constituting the additional two sections, into which the issuance and approval of the executive project of the sub-section in question was divided.

By Approval Act No. 13/line "C" dated 16/06/2023, the Contracting Authority approved the drafts of the 1st part of the Executive Project. By Approval Act No. 16/line "C" dated 24/07/2023 the Contracting Authority approved the executive project second part of the Venezia-Imperial Fora/Colosseum sub-section and finally by Approval Act No. 1/2024 dated 10/01/2024 the Contracting Authority approved the executive project for the third part.

By Service Order No. 39 formulated by the Project Manager on 26 September 2023, the start of activities took place and excavations on Piazza Venezia are underway, and on 1 October 2023, the Executive Work Program of the section was updated (from 17/01/2023 to 03/09/2033)

As of 30.11.2023 (SAL 2 as of 30/06/2023) there are 2 SALs issued for the T2 Venezia - Colosseum/Imperial Fora sub-section and 2 payment certificates issued for a total certified amount to the credit of the General Contractor of € 13,983,074.43 plus VAT.

The amount corresponds to approximately 2% of the total reference amount from the updated Economic Framework (€ 588,424,487.84).

The interventions aimed at restoring the pavements and securing the pedestrian crossing along Via Cassia Antica. Specifically, pedestrians barriers were installed at the intersection with Via Pareto in order to prevent irregular parking of vehicles. Furthermore, the pavement in Via Cassia 427, previously covered with mud and spontaneous vegetation, has been restored. The works involved a road section of approximately 3 km in length, extending from Piazzale di Ponte Milvio to the intersection with Via Oriolo Romano.

The NRRP aims to promote the creation of cycle networks in 40 Italian cities, through interventions of maintenance and/or new construction, for tourist/recreational (tourist cycle paths) and urban (urban cycle paths) purposes. 

Thus, Roma Capitale has set itself the goal of implementing a multi-year programme to promote the use of bicycles as structural means of transport for systematic travel.

This programme will improve accessibility and safety for cyclists in the city, by encouraging greater use of bicycles for daily travel. 

The project relates to the implementation of an intrusion alarm system at several high-risk school complexes identified by the Municipalities. Between November 2021 and October 2023, about 140 new systems were installed, in addition to the existing ones, for a total of 900 schools in 2,500 buildings. The systems are connected to an Alarm Room operating 24/7, allowing real-time management to trigger necessary interventions in response to alarm events or any detected anomalies.

The integrated plan developed for Santa Maria della Pietà aims to create a Health and Well-being Park, which represents an articulated system of spaces and activities to enhance personal development. The project aims to promote social-work skills, healthy lifestyles and psychophysical well-being, embracing aspects such as nutrition education, entrepreneurship, legality, sport and exercise. The intervention will include actions that meet the need for space for personal care and provide an environment conducive to social welfare, training, entrepreneurial and workshop initiatives. These activities will complement those already present in the complex, supporting the recovery and revitalisation of the park and the existing pavilions. The design will develop and integrate different functions, responding to citizens' needs, with a focus on physical and psychological well-being, social care, sociality and inclusion. The services offered will support emerging businesses and the most vulnerable. The experimental approach and shared governance could be a model for other initiatives that promote collaboration between institutional, private, scientific and civic entities.

The Innovation Urban Planning has redefined the functionality of public spaces and, simultaneously, implemented a major private intervention designed by "Mario Cucinella Architects". The intervention aims to redevelop the urban area, with special attention to the landscaping of the edges of Via Cristoforo Colombo and the areas connecting with the surrounding neighbourhood. The main goal is to expand this redevelopment to the Plan of Viale Giustiniano Imperatore by reorganising the rest and green areas. This intervention will involve significant simplifications in the local infrastructures, i.e. the reintegration of traffic in Via Cristoforo Colombo towards Viale di Tor Marancia, to allow a full light synchronisation along Via Cristoforo Colombo.

The affected areas will not only benefit from a functional urban redesign, but also from a redevelopment of their public green spaces and urban services, with the aim of increasing the permeability of the area involved and promoting "urban forestation". More specifically, car parks are planned over an area of 39,000 sqm, and green public services over an area of 16,000 sqm. In addition, the cycle paths will be redesigned and new facilities for the neighbourhood created, including a new bowls club, skate park and children's play area. These facilities will be integrated and organised in valuable landscapes, providing comfortable shady spaces.

Lastly, it is planned to relocate the bar kiosk currently located in Piazza Elio Rufino, to create a social context integrated with the square itself, through redevelopment including seats, flowerbeds and potted trees.

The proposed intervention aims to strengthen social assistance services for families, parents and children in vulnerable situations. 

Through home support, parents will be provided with tools and resources to face daily challenges and develop parenting skills. Customised projects will be implemented to address the specific needs of the households involved. 

The intervention will focus on families with children from 0 to 17 years old, with particular attention to the 0-6 age group, through five separate projects, called “PIPPI”, which will involve 250 families.

Last March, two new Anti-Violence Centres were opened in Municipalities V and XIII, dedicated to Angela Merlin and Palmina Martinelli, respectively. To realise these centres, building works were carried out to reorganise spaces, including the creation of rooms for initial reception, individual interviews and services accessible to people with disabilities. In addition, outdoor spaces were improved and electrical, water and thermal systems were adjusted.

Anti-Violence Centres play an essential role in offering psychological and legal counselling, support, training, awareness and prevention to victims of violence. They provide assistance through telephone reception and personal interviews to help women out of violent situations.

The management of the Anti-Violence Centres has been entrusted to specialised third sector organisations, in collaboration with the Capitoline Department for Equal Opportunity, to ensure functional and adequate services.
