If you are planning to go to Monza...

Watch out for the public transport maps in Italy. Apparently a clerical error means that maps which have been produced for the Milan metro system show the city's Parco Nord in the wrong place - with Monza being shown to the south of the park rather than where it really is to the north.

WATCH out for the public transport maps in Italy. Apparently a clerical error means that maps which have been produced for the Milan metro system show the city's Parco Nord in the wrong place - with Monza being shown to the south of the park rather than where it really is to the north. Thus people trying to get to Monza will get off the train several kilometers before they need to do so.

The Milan transit authority is trying to work out what went wrong and hopes to have all the maps replaced as quickly as possible...
