There are ways around it Carryfast but its gonna be chaos with the extra traffic. I wonder how many years
it will take to rebuild that bridge ?
Hopefully they’ll replace it with a proper suspension bridge in which case the Golden Gate only took 4 years from start to finish and the Verrazano 5 years and another 5 to add another deck to it.Although the impossible in the form of the Humber took a bit longer. 
As I said a lot of the traffic using that stretch doesn’t originate from the along the Med coast it drops down from Turin or from the Simplon using the A26 so much of that at least will probably just use the A 7 and A12 instead and the other Ventimiglia etc traffic will just divert onto the SS1 using the Guido Rossa which ironically is actually a much better bridge crossing than the Morandi anyway.At least that’s how I’d probably deal with the closure.So probably no big deal at the end of the day and ironically might even split the combined traffic streams enough to make the Morandi route pointless.
