Rail connections between Switzerland and Italy will be cut from Thursday. Starting on December 10, until further notice, the Swiss Federal Railways (Ffs) and Trenitalia cut the connections between Switzerland and Italy, the Swiss news agency Keystone-Ats reports today. The decision is linked to the Dpcm and the tougher anti-pollution measures introduced, as well as the drastic drop in passengers, a statement from SBB said. The Swiss would refer in particular to the difficulty (on the part of the employees) to enforce certain standards required by the Italian authorities, for example the measurement of the fever of all passengers or the fact that, those arriving from Switzerland , they are asked as of December 10 for a negative swab. Both regional and long-distance TILO traffic are affected, Keystone-Ats notes. Swiss trains run to the border. Regional traffic trains between Brig and Domodossola continue to run.

Dpcm closure

It is all due to the fact that as Christmas approaches, the Italian government has decided to toughen the tickets. From December 10 to January 15 (last expiration date of the new Dpcm) who enters Italy from a European country (the countries of list C of annex 20, that is: the 27 countries of the EU, United Kingdom, Iceland , Norway and also Switzerland) can only do so by exhibiting a negative molecular or antigenic swab performed within 48 hours prior to entry into the national territory. Those who do not present it upon arrival in Italy must submit to fiduciary isolation. Not only. A tougher crackdown occurs between December 21 and January 6. During this period, it will be possible to enter Italy from one of the list C countries (hence Switzerland included) with a negative swab only for work, study, health, absolute urgency needs, or to return home, home or residence. Otherwise (for example, entry for holidays and tourism), the quarantine will be mandatory.
