Webuild signed a contract worth about €660 million to build the first 6.5 kilometers of Phase 1A, Lot 1 of Naples Metro Line 10, with exclusive rights to additional works that could raise Lot 1's total value beyond €1.7 billion.

The Lot 1 plan includes seven stations in Phase 1A (three fully built, four partially started) and envisions an additional 7.3 kilometers with five new stations and a parking facility serving Naples-Afragola.

The signing underscores a multi-stage process for Line 10, with Phase 1A funded to begin and exclusive rights granted to the consortium for future works as financing allows, as the project progresses toward central Naples and the Naples-Afragola AV station.

Implementation is a joint effort between the City of Naples and the Campania Region, with Eav acting as the implementing body.

Beyond transport, the project redevelops public spaces and creates green areas along the route, targeting culturally significant districts such as Piazza Carlo III in Naples, which is undergoing restoration.

The initiative includes enhancements around Piazza Carlo III and the Real Albergo dei Poveri renovation, adding public space improvements and greenery.

Key officials at the signing included regional president Roberto Fico, Naples mayor Gaetano Manfredi, Eav president Umberto De Gregorio, and Webuild CEO Pietro Salini.

Ceremonial signatories also encompassed Naples City Infrastructure Councillor Edoardo Cosenza, underscoring high-level support for Line 10.

Naples Metro Line 10 is framed as a flagship project for sustainable mobility in Southern Italy.

The works were awarded in December to a consortium led by Webuild, alongside Eteria Consorzio Stabile, Costruire, ICM, and M.N. Metropolitana di Napoli.

Line 10 will link the Naples-Afragola high-speed rail station with Naples city center in about 20 minutes, spanning 14 kilometers with 12 new stations and serving over 650,000 residents in a dense area.

The line will interconnect with existing networks at Di Vittorio, Piazza Garibaldi, and Casoria-Afragola, enabling intermodal access to Lines 1 and 2, Circumvesuviana, and regional/national rail services.
