Correzione tracciato linee S.Severo – Rodi – Peschici

This is all it says, as the next line just lists the year the work was carried out and the client - its like an online portfolio of works for marketing purposes.

track realignment
Explanation:
Correzione = correction, adjustment
Tracciato = track, route, path
So this likely refers to a stretch of track that's become damaged or distorted and needed straightening out. Either "alignment" or "realignment" would work, but the latter is probably more accurate.

Seems to have been a single-line track, so maybe they were widening it to make it two-way.

Nel 2014 è iniziato anche il servizio viaggiatori tra San Severo e Foggia, garantito da tre nuovi treni finanziati dalla Regione Puglia con 15 milioni di euro e con un co-finanziamento del 25% di Ferrovie del Gargano....
Infine è in fase avanzata il completamento dei lavori relativi al secondo lotto della variante di tracciato, compresa tra San Severo e San Nicandro Garganico. I lavori sono stati finanziati con fondi europei per lo sviluppo regionale e con finanziamenti regionali e sono stati eseguiti da ditte locali. La variante che abbrevia di circa 4 km la distanza tra le due città, rispetto al tratto attualmente in esercizio, dovrebbe entrare in funzione nei prossimi mesi, al termine dei lavori, velocizzando notevolmente i collegamenti tra i centri del Gargano settentrionale, attraversati dalla ferrovia, San Severo e Foggia.

Still seems to be single track but completely renewed.
