Italy will receive 200 billion euros from Brussels, part of which will be used to modernize its infrastructure.

Over 1000 km/h – Theoretically

The Hyperloop concept envisions electrically powered passenger pods with up to 1220 kilometers per hour Shot through a tube with low air pressure.

However, one should not expect that one will travel between Padua and Mistra at a speed of over 1,000 km/h for the foreseeable future. All previous tests were performed at significantly lower speeds. Present Record from the Technical University of Munich 463 km/h – But without passengers. The highest speed when traveling with people on the plane is 172 km/h.
