Autostrada del Brennero is a public limited company.
Of its shares, 84.7% are held by Public Bodies in the
areas through which the A22 passes, private shareholders
account for 14.1%, while the remaining shares are owned
by the Company itself. The Company operates under a
public services scheme with the main aim of "promoting,
planning, constructing and operating tollways, including
the Autostrada del Brennero Verona-Modena, known as the
A22".
Due to the specific shareholder structure of the Company,
it is natural that it operates in the public interest, with
particular attention to the needs of the areas through
which the tollway infrastructure passes.
As early as the 90s, with the knowledge that traffic would
increase constantly, Autostrada del Brennero began to
actively promote intermodal freight transport and railway
transport with a direct controlling interest in the rail
traction company STR - Brennero Trasporto Rotaia, and
an indirect interest in RTC - Rail Traction Company and
Lokomotion GmbH.
The Company was also committed to completing two
strategic routes in Northern Italy: the Cispadana tollway
that was to link Reggiolo (with an exit along the A22) with
Ferrara (by connecting to the exit Ferrara Sud along the A13
Bologna-Padua tollway) and Campogalliano Sassuolo, which
is an extension of the A22 where it meets the A1 tollway, up
to SS (state road) 67 known as the "Pedemontana" in the area of Sassuolo. Autostrada del Brennero controls both
these tollways with a 51% shareholding.
