Redevelopment of viale Matteotti in Nichelino
News of
The redevelopment of viale Matteotti is a public works project completed in Nichelino, in the Castello district, which widened the carriageway, reshaped a bend, and built a protected cycle-and-pedestrian path, new pedestrian crossings and new light points, including the section under the ring-road bridge [1].
The works
The works included, among other things, the construction of a new roundabout at the junction of viale Matteotti and via Spinelli [1]. The site was completed in the first days of November 2026 and the work is awaiting final inspection (collaudo) [1].
Statements
The Nichelino city councillor for Public Works, Giorgia Ruggiero, inspected the area both by day and at night to check the new lighting in particular, which she said was one of residents' most frequent requests [1]. According to the councillor, thanks to the new roundabout the Castello district has changed face, and viale Matteotti is now safer, better lit and more accessible [1].
Other works under way
In the same period, the Municipality of Nichelino reported progress on works in via Prali, where a new roundabout is being built at the junction with via Buffa, via Gozzano, via Brescia and via San Giovanni, together with the redevelopment of the whole street with new pavements, resurfacing and new public lighting [1]. The via Prali works, begun in January 2026, have fallen about two weeks behind schedule because of bad weather, and are expected to be completed in the early months of 2027 [1].
