According to a note issued by Autostrade per l’Italia, the highway section between Barberino di Mugello and Calenzano is closed in both directions. In reality, the accidents were two and involved 9 heavy trucks, one of which rolled over and 3 cars.
The first clash between two trucks was followed by the impact of incoming vehicles, one of which ended up with its tires in flames, generating a heavy smoke.
The highway opened again to the cars and trucks at 8, but throughout the day were queues in both directions.
