Messina Bridge Development - Sicily bridge

The Messina bridge Development which would connect mainland Italy with Siicly could start in 2010 and it it does, it will be one of the most amazing bridge developments in the world.

Soem people oppose the bridge because they say it will create environmental problems, mean more money for the mafia and could be better spent. There are certainly benefits though and these would be:

• Much quicker travel times between Sicily and the mainland.
• A lot of construction jobs.
• Increased property prices in Sicily and Southern Italy.
• Improvements for road freight to and from Sicily.
