Completion is expected by autumn 2026, with the first full season in spring-summer 2027.

A truck rear-ended a camper van on the A1 highway in Italy between Modena and Bologna, carrying a family from Rome. Six people were injured, including a 26-year-old mother and her 7-month-old son, who was hospitalized in serious condition. The infant was airlifted to Maggiore Hospital in Bologna and is now out of danger. Traffic was temporarily closed for rescue operations.

The municipality of Castelletto Ticino has abandoned plans to build a camper parking area on Via Varallo Pombia. The decision follows months of political debate and opposition from the minority group, which questioned the project's feasibility. The administration will now prioritize the redevelopment of Cicognola beach and a new central parking lot.
