Commissioner Extraordinary for the Government, Calogero Mauceri, approved two decrees authorizing the interventions, signing them in the Prefecture in Genova. The event was attended by the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure, Edoardo Rixi, the Liguria Governor Marco Bucci, the Mayor Silvia Salis, and Carlo Castellano, president of the Associazione ligure per i minori. Mauceri and Rixi assured that \"the Third Valico excavations\", meaning the high-speed, high-capacity Genova-Milan rail line, \"will be completed in spring 2027. We are 97% done with the excavations\". Mauceri added that \"we will be able to define with Ferrovie and Cociv (the general contractor for the work, ed) a program to complete the line within a year\". A framework agreement for creating an Educational Innovation District in Valpolcevera, the former Facchini area, handed over for free by Ferrovie dello Stato to the Municipality, was also signed. This will see the construction of the first experimental technological high school in Italy, with the aim of launching experimentation from the 2027-2028 school year. The first decree sets aside 42.2 million euros for the Certosa and Rivarolo neighborhoods, where expropriations, demolitions and urban transformation measures are planned, \"helping to mitigate the environmental, urban and landscape impacts of the rail infrastructure\", according to the commissioner. Resources also enable the first operational phase of the urban transformation program in areas most affected by the Campasso rail enhancement and the completion of the Third Valico. Measures are also taken to extend the metro to Rivarolo. The second decree sets aside 16.4 million euros for the creation of the Ardoino park in Sampierdarena, one of the priority projects identified in the Urban Regeneration Program. The intervention will affect an area of about 8,000 square meters, developed along about 295 meters, \"returning the citizenship with a space today characterized by the presence of rail infrastructure and transforming it into a place dedicated to sociability, greenery and urban quality\". Mauceri stated that \"the Government is keeping its commitments to Genova, not with words, but with resources, works and excavations\". Bucci added that \"it is a project that started three and a half years ago that reaches the operational phase. We are happy, a big step forward for Genova, which has been given the opportunity to extend the metro to Rivarolo\". Salis highlighted that \"the institutions are aligned because there is a part of Genova that needs to be compensated for many delays and sacrifices. The Municipality of Genova has found itself ready: the Conference of Services for the Ardoino park will start in October 2026\". Castellano emphasized that \"10,000 square meters of the former Facchini area are being handed over, for 99 years, to the Genova Municipality, for the creation of Italy's first experimental technological high school and other schools. By the end of 2026, the municipal administration will be able to launch an international competition to choose the best project\". All interventions fall within the broader urban regeneration program that today has 186 million euros and accompanies the realization of the unique Terzo valico project - Genova node, through compensation, redevelopment and territory valorization. The projects are fully consistent with the objectives set by the Protocol signed in 2022 and its subsequent addenda and fully compatible with the schedule of rail works.",
