An Italian court has revoked an order that had halted work to remove olive trees from the pathway of the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), a lawyer involved in the case said.
Opposition from the local town council and the regional government of Apulia has caused a series of delays to the project.
Earlier this month a court issued the order to suspend the work to remove the olive trees at the behest of the Region.
"The court has annulled that sentence," Reuters cited a lawyer for the Region Mariano Alterio as saying.
A spokesman for TAP Italy also confirmed the court's decision.
