Update on the landslide at the Ponte della Maddalena

A few months ago there was a landslide near the Ponte Maddalena in Borgo a Mozzano, on the road to and from Bagni di Lucca. The road was closed for sometime while the fallen rocks and soil was cleared and the road reinforced.

Here is a photo I took of earlier work on the landslide.

The work continues and recently I climbed to the top of the bridge to see the workmen on the hillside.


The view from the top of the bridge is spectacular.

I hope those men and their equipment are securely tied to something sturdy!

  1. Is the road at this point open to car traffic, perhaps a single lane direction at a time? We are hoping to visit in April/May.
