The Mega Lot 3 of the Ionian Highway foresees the construction of a new section of the SS-106, from the junction with highway SS-534 (km 365+150) in Sibari to Roseto Capo Spulico (km 400+000) in the region of Calabria. Work is expected to last seven years.

The section will be 38 kilometres, running for one kilometre along the historic route to connect the Ionian coastlines found in the regions of Calabria, Basilicata and Puglia. It will also create a link between the A3 Highway and Puglia. The first 18 kilometres of the new highway will cross flat terrain while another 18 kilometres will run along the coast and a plateau with valleys. It will have 11 tunnels and 14 viaducts with some piers up to 100 metres in height in an area with complex terrain. The project requires the kind of expertise that Webuild Group has acquired from the construction of 80,291 kilometres of roads and highways throughout the world.

The project will also enhance the area by improving the grounds of the Archeological Park of Sybaris where the foundations of ancient buildings can be observed. This meeting of the past and the future represents a great development opportunity for a region with a rich history.
