basin. It is crossed by goods and people from Europe and the Mediterranean area. The
construction of the Milan-Bologna and Bologna-Florence sections of the High Speed (TAV)
railway is almost completed and a huge multi-level transport hub station is being constructed next to Bologna central station.
Japanese architect Arata Isozaki won the competition to design the new station which is expected to take six years to complete. This doesn't surprise me at all since every day I was in Bologna I crossed the rail bridge there and I have yet to see anyone doing any work.
