How do you make a highway? Cement, earth, asphalt. Massive steel structures, major engineering works. Kilometers of guard rails, barriers and New Jersey barriers. But are we sure that's all there is to it? Yes, perhaps, when it needs to be built these ingredients can be enough. But once the highway comes to life and cars, motorcycles and trucks start to populate it, then, there, you have to start making it work. And to do that, you need technologies, systems and equipment that are impossible to imagine. To understand them you have to see them with your own eyes, from the inside. In this new episode of Industrie Speciali we will discover a latest-generation highway, an impressive infrastructure that hides incredible secrets. Do you know, for example, why there are mysterious pipes along the most modern highways? Or how the barrier rises when the toll booth jams? In this video we discovered that a tunnel consumes as much as 40 apartments. That there are overpasses for animals and that lay-bys now work with artificial intelligence. But also that a highway has a server room worthy of Silicon Valley and that it is better to make cars travel as much as possible underground, even when there is apparently no need for it. We will take you behind the scenes of one of the most recent highway sections in our country, the Pedemontana Veneta. The last section was inaugurated this year and, in many ways, this connection represents the state of the art in the construction of large communication arteries. 94 km long, it connects the province of Vicenza with that of Treviso, passing through Bassano del Grappa, crossing 37 different municipalities.
