Autostrade and Spea will not be civilly liable.
This was decided by the court, in the trial for the collapse of the Morandi bridge (14 August 2018, 43 victims), which accepted the request for exclusion.
At this point, in the event of a conviction, the individual defendants will pay the compensation, except for the possibility of civil cases.
The two companies had already left the process after the plea deal for about 30 million, Autostrade and Spea could completely exit the process for the collapse of the Morandi bridge (14 August 2018, 43 victims).
On trial there are 59 people including former managers and technicians of Autostrade and Spea, former and current managers of the Ministry of Infrastructures and the Superintendency of Public Works of Liguria.
According to the indictment, everyone knew about the condition of the bridge but maintenance was not done to save money.
During today's hearing, the lawyers of the more than 300 civil parties who asked to appear at the first hearing last July will speak.
