Interforce Emergency Plan

Italian Legislative Decree 264 of 5/10/2006 on safety measures for tunnels in the trans-European network introduced, under Annex 4, the concept of “safety documentation”.

In particular, the aforementioned decree provided for the drafting of “an emergency management plan drawn up in collaboration with the emergency services that takes into account users, emergency services personnel, as well as persons with reduced mobility and disabled persons”.

The purpose of this emergency plan is to provide a useful tool in risk forecasting and damage prevention by planning the technological and human resources available, in the face of an event capable of altering the usual safety and mobility characteristics of the motorway artery (with particular reference to fires in tunnels).

This plan, in accordance with the aforementioned regulations, takes into consideration the operations used to guarantee the safety of traffic, the safety of people (users and emergency services personnel), taking into account that there may be people with reduced mobility and disabled people involved in the incident.
