Overview
- On the A1 between Ceprano and Pontecorvo around 07:30, a van carrying construction workers collided with a car, killing three workers and sending the other driver to Cassino’s Santa Scolastica hospital in critical condition.
- Firefighters used cutting equipment to free victims from the wreckage as 118 teams responded with multiple ambulances and a helicopter.
- A1 congestion initially stretched about five kilometers but has largely cleared, with traffic flowing on a single lane after earlier guidance to exit at Ceprano and re-enter at Pontecorvo.
- Separately, two people died on the SS148 Pontina at km 43 in Aprilia, prompting closure of the Terracina-bound carriageway, a mandatory exit at km 42.900 via del Tufetto, and a shutdown of the Rome-bound passing lane.
- Local reports indicate a truck broke through the central barrier and struck an oncoming vehicle on the Pontina, a dynamic under investigation, as Anas, police, and firefighters manage diversions and heavy local congestion.
