📋 Tender Overview
Starting next Monday, November 10, the Monte SantAngelo station, built by Webuild on the new Line 7 of the Naples Metro, will officially open to the public. The work is one of the many infrastructures that the Group is realizing in the South, with a total awarded value of about EUR15 billion, and is among the 14 Webuild stations of the Naples metro, including some of the most iconic Art Stations such as Toledo, internationally awarded, Universita, Dante, Museo, and Materdei. This new opening will allow the first trains to run on Line 7, on the section between the stops of and Soccavo, where interconnection with the Circumflegrea is also planned. Thus, a new fundamental piece of the citys public transport system becomes operational, ensuring further opportunities for sustainable mobility thanks to interconnections with the existing metro network. In particular, for those arriving from Monte SantAngelo, it is now possible to interchange at the Montesanto node with the Circumflegrea and the Cumana, which connect the city center with the Phlegrean area, and with the funicular that reaches the Vomero district. Also at Montesanto, further interconnections with Line 2 and the nearby central stops of Piazza Dante and Toledo of Line 1 are possible, offering an alternative to private transport in a high-density residential area. Built by Webuild on behalf of EAV (Ente Autonomo Volturno), the implementing body of the Campania Region, Monte SantAngelo is among the Art Stations of Naples, hosting two monumental installations by the internationally renowned artist Anish Kapoor located at the two entrances, one serving the campus of the University of Naples Federico II and the other in the Rione Traiano district. The two works are cyclopean sculptures in the shape of a mouth that engulf visitors, guiding them inward and transforming the station entrance into an immersive journey that evokes the descent into the Underworld. The internal environment, developed underground on a single level that slopes downward, recalls the mouth of a cave thanks to the natural rock effect of the transit tunnel cladding. Escalators and characteristic inclined elevators inspired by the citys funiculars ensure access to the platforms. Monte SantAngelo is the first of four new stations planned on Line 7, which will extend for over 4.5 km almost entirely underground, with a final connection to the Mostra station where an interchange with the Cumana, Line 6, and the nearby Campi Flegrei stop of Line 2 is planned. On Line 7, Webuild is also working on the construction of the Parco San Paolo station, where the work has exceeded 50% overall progress and the first two underground levels of the five planned have already been completed. For the third level, the related slab is being completed, while in recent days, excavation activities for the new connecting tunnel to the future Terracina stop have also begun. In Naples, Webuild is currently also engaged in the construction of which will allow direct connection between the three major hubs of urban mobility - port, airport, and railway network, including high-speed - and in the doubling of the Cumana, which connects Naples to Pozzuoli, over a stretch of about 5 km between the Dazio and Cantieri stations.
