Italy North and Central Map ITMB

Italy North and Central Map ITMB 

Italy is a very densely populated country, requiring sectional maps to portray its complex road/rail network in sufficient detail to make sense. This is a brand new title for ITMB, covering the central portion of the peninsula from Naples north to Florence on side one, and includes a large inset map of Sardinia. Side two covers the vast expanse of the north of the country, from the high alpine valleys of D’Aosta and Trentino to the plains of northern Italy and the coastal provinces of the Mediterranean and Adriatic coastlines.

The immediate border areas of France and Switzerland are included, but the extensive plate name index covers most of those countries. Motorways (in blue) tend to be toll highways. Multi-lane highways (in magenta) and principal highways (in green) tend to be non-toll. The red lines are ordinary two-lave roadways, and tend to go through villages every kilometer or so and to follow mountainous contours. We spent a week in January 2020, in the Rome to Naples to Montecassino triangle, and found the roads to be in good condition. We are now working on a companion map covering southern Italy, and on a detailed map of Sardinia to join our exciting maps of Sicily, Rome and Venice.
