The project involves the doubling of the Rome–Viterbo line along the section between Cesano and Bracciano stations. The new double-track section, with a total length of approximately 16 km, will run partly alongside the existing track and partly along a new variant. There are also plans to remove all level crossings currently located along the section.
The Cesano-Bracciano project is currently at the design stage. The full work schedule is subject to the availability of funding for the construction phase. The project's design phase has received public funding.
