History[]

The name New Valassina is due to the original design of the road, which aimed to connect Erba with low Brianza and Milan, along the course of the Valassina, crossed the river Lambro.

The section going through the Monte Barro tunnel and the tunnel below the center of Lecco was opened in 1999. Previously, the path from Civate went along Valmadrera, Malgrate and through the Kennedy bridge to Lecco City.

Viale Lombardia tunnel[]

Since 2013, the road goes through an urban tunnel in Monza, about 1800 meters long, under viale Lombardia. As of 2016, the tunnel was used 20 million times per year.[1]

The tunnel was pushed since 1996 by the "Committee San Fruttuoso" and others.[2] The project was accepted by the ministry of transportation in 2008; works began in January 2009 and completed in April 2013. The project cost 330 million euros[3] (revised to 345)[4] and was funded by State, Region, province, and municipalities of Monza, Cinisello Balsamo and Muggiò ALSI and Spa (South Lambro Spa water - the wastewater company of Monza and Brianza).[citation needed]

Speed limits[]

The speed limit on SS36 is 90 km/h, although it is reduced to 70 km/h between Abbadia Lariana and Lecco itself.
