Peschiera Highway Toll Closure: Night Detours for High-Speed Rail Construction

On the night of September 30, the Peschiera Highway Toll Closure will impact traffic as the entry gates remain inaccessible from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM. This disruption is a necessary step for the ongoing construction of the Brescia Est–Verona high-speed rail line (AV/AC), managed by the Cepav Due Consortium.

Schedule and Alternative Routes

Following the initial closure, the disruption will shift on the nights of October 1 and 2, during the same hours, when the exit gates at Peschiera del Garda will be closed to incoming traffic. These scheduled paving interventions are a critical phase in the realization of the new high-speed rail infrastructure, affecting significant traffic flows from and toward Venice and Milan.

Travelers navigating the southern shores of Lake Garda during these nights are advised to use the alternative toll booths of Sirmione or Sommacampagna. Planning ahead will ensure a smooth journey despite the temporary logistical challenges.
