Galleria Belmonte
The Galleria Belmonte tunnel is located at kilometre 59.550 of the Tangenziale di Fossano, on state road 231 "di Santa Vittoria", in the province of Cuneo. The ring road links the local road network between the roundabout at Boschetti and the Fossano Nord/Marene junction, where the La Reale viaduct is located [1][2].
2026-2027 restoration works
Anas has scheduled the restoration of the Galleria Belmonte tunnel surfaces, to be carried out in two successive phases on the two carriageways [1][2]. To set up the worksite, on Saturday 7 November 2026 the Tangenziale di Fossano remained closed to traffic in both directions from 7am to 5pm, in the stretch between the Boschetti roundabout and the Fossano Nord/Marene junction; during the closure vehicles were diverted onto local roads [1][2].
The closure made it possible to set up a carriageway swap of about 700 metres at the tunnel. From 5pm on Saturday 7 November the ring road reopened to traffic in both directions on the single carriageway towards Asti, set up for two-way traffic, while the carriageway towards Cuneo remained closed [1][2]. This first phase of works, carried out by Anas, is expected to be completed by the end of January 2027; the restoration work on the opposite carriageway will follow [1][2].
