It is useless to connect the port channel of Cagliari with the railway net, supports Assospedizionieri Sardinia



Assospedizionieri Sardinia rejects the hypothesis advanced from the Harbour Authority and the regional councillorship to the Transports to connect the port channel of Cagliari with the railway net. Taking part this morning to the convention dedicated to the presentation of the "Project Snodo/2 Territories - Sardinia logistic platform of the Mediterranean", than has been carried out in the regional chief town, the secretary of Assospedizionieri Sardinia, Salvatore Plaisant, has emphasized that "to Cagliari it does not serve the connection of the port channel with the railway net. We are in a island and the requirements are various regarding the continent".

The association of the Sardinian shipment houses has remembered that the project, financed from the ministry of Infrastructures and the regional councillorship of the Transports, has the objective, through the strengthening of the net of the services and harbour and railway infrastructures, to generate the optimal conditions in order to be profitable convenient, by companies and operators of the transport, to insert the long Sardinia own chain of production and transport taking advantage of the centrality of the island in the western Mediterranean.
The opinion of inforMARE In its today's participation Plaisant it has said that in continent it is known very well from years, but that nobody says (not even we). Or better: one that has repeated it often in recent years is. He is Mauro Moretti, from five years managing director of Italian Railroads of the State (FS) and previously managing and member of the board of directors of the same company. In its numberless participation to conventions on the issues of the transport, the logistics and the portualità - to many of which we inforMARE have assisted - Moretti has always supported that the rail shipment of the goods on the inferior drafts to the 250-300 kilometers is not competitive regarding the road haulage. As saying that for great part of the national transports the railroad is outside game. There will be escaped to us, but never we have felt some reporter to controbattere with vehemence this thesis. Called to return the railway group more efficient public Italian, Moretti has openly repeated that segment of business is not productive for the company. Much hour they are astonished because FS is progressively abandoning the transport goods to mean-short beam. We not. B.B.

In the course of the today's encounter Plaisant it has expressed the perplexities of Assospedizionieri on the proposal already launch from the new president of the Harbour Authority of Cagliari, Piergiorgio Massidda, and supported from the regional city council member to the Transports, Christian Solinas, on the necessity strategic to connect the port channel with the railway net. "In the last White Paper of the Transports of the 2011 - it has found Plaisant - EU commission it has taken note that the transport goods, on the inferior distances to 300 kilometers, will continue to being carried out for widest measure with trucks. So in continent, to greater reason in Sardinia, that it is a island".

Assospedizionieri Sardinia has instead thrown again the project to make to leave the customs bonded area to Cagliari. "With the increment of the movement that will carry - it has found Plaisant - it will be able to be upgraded, or better to introduce beginning right now the connection all goods (container and semitowings) on the Cagliari-Genoa draft in order to do so as that the destined Sardinia receives goods to the continent not vice versa and, as happens currently".

In its Plaisant participation it has evidenced also some meaningful data: "for the great destinations, that is for European and European Countries, the movement of the containers (teu) with goods Sardinian, for which the port of Cagliari is used, it is in steady increase: a +55.3% in 2010 have been recorded and a +33.1% in 2011 are previewed ulterior". "For us shippers - he has concluded - are fundamental the total quality of the service: times of yield, transit Time, frequency, punctuality of delivery, not breach of the cargo".
