Enrico Rossi, President of the Tuscany Region was present, who at the same time signed an Action Protocol with the Anac for the doubling of the Lucca-Pistoia railway line. intervention co-financed by the Region.
The protocol adds to and integrates the legality protocols that Rete Ferroviaria Italiana has already signed with institutions and territorial bodies for the prevention of corruption and transparency in the territories involved in works contracted out by Rfi.
