The project concerns the construction of the new bus lane, located on the right side of Via Zorzi in Bellinzona towards the centre, which follows the existing road layout for a total length of about 250 m. As part of the project, following activities have been performed: new bus stop with reinforced concrete shelter, widening of the roadway, modification of the caisson structure that houses the Dragonato canal, transformation and laying of new infrastructures and a new support on micro piles, anchored by pretensioned tie rods (in total 6 tie rods, positioned in 2 different heights). For the construction of the aforementioned retaining wall, during the works it was necessary to use a temporary steel support structure for Dragonato channel and some sheet piling retaining walls for the excavations.
