Truck Hits A31 Roadworks Near Vicenza, Killing One Worker

Investigators are working to establish why a heavy vehicle entered a marked construction zone on the Valdastico motorway near Noventa Vicentina.

Overview

  • The collision occurred around 13:00 on the A31 between Noventa Vicentina and Vicenza, reportedly just before the Agugliaro toll exit.
  • One road worker was declared dead at the scene by emergency medical staff from Noventa Vicentina.
  • A second worker was stabilized on site and airlifted to Vicenza for intensive care after a rescue helicopter landed alongside the motorway.
  • Emergency services, firefighters and highway police responded to the site, and the Polstrada opened an investigation into the dynamics of the crash.
  • The area had active roadworks with traffic reduced to a single lane, and early accounts indicate the truck veered into the signaled worksite.
