The Harbour Authority of has introduced its project for a multimodale logistic corridor
Paita (Liguria Region): necessary to insert the Pontremolese in the map of the nets IT TRY
May 3, 2012
Today to Port Lotteries to, in the within of the convention "the evolution of the transeuropee nets of transport and the role of the freeways of the sea. The Core port of: a bridge between the Africa North and the Europe North" and in front of the maximum representatives of the EU commission: Luis Valente de Oliveira, European coordinator of the Freeways of the Sea, and Josè Laranjeira Anselmo, responsible political Freeways of the Sea for the EU commission, the Harbour Authority of has illustrated its project for a multimodale logistic corridor based on the concept of freeways of the sea that connect the Africa North with the Europe North, project that will be introduced in the next European calls.
"The insertion in the net of the Cores ports - spezzina has said the president of the Harbour Authority, Lorenzo Forcieri - is for us a stimulus not a symbol of which fregiare to us. A stimulus to always increase to more efficiency and operativity of our port. In spite of the crisis or perhaps own also thanks to the crisis - it has observed - the Mediterranean ports can recover traffics. The increase of the costs of the bunker, that it has arrived near the 700 dollars to ton, can push shipowners and companies, but also the goods, that is the industry, to save various days of navigation and various tons of bunker and to realize remarkable economies of scale".
"No velleità to replace to us to the ports of the North - it has specified Forcieri - but certainly is that we want to recover the market shares lost in these years. In order to make it, it is necessary to re-balance the traffics in favour of the aerial and of the ports of the side South. We must leave from the factors that have determined this gap and act consequently. An infrastructure problem exists: docks, backdrops, railroads, roads and the Country must return to invest in these fields, also favoring the participations of the private ones, where and when these are available. But a problem of norms exists also and above all - it has added -, orders, praxes that go changed. I refer to the same topics of the structure of the Harbour Authorities, of their legal nature, of their organizational form, to the norms that discipline the approval of the harbour town development plans, those which normano the operations of dredging and reclamation. And then the controls, necessary, but that they cannot become an element that distorts the competition and penalize the competitiveness of our ports of call. I refer also to the topic of the only door that not is still, to the equipment of the staff for the offices of customs, of the marine health: insufficient, but above all badly distributed. Here, this seems me certainly an interesting topic also for new commissioner Bondi".
Forcieri has evidenced as the project of multimodale logistic corridor ulteriorly values the role of the port of in the European context. "However, waiting for great material infrastructures - it has explained - we must work to immaterial infrastructures, the application of the new technologies and to all this that can be made quickly and in the short term in order to increase the competitiveness of our ports. Alla Spezia we are making it in close collaboration with the other institutions and the operators of our port of call".
"We want launch - Federica Montaresi has confirmed, responsible office studies of the Harbour Authority of - a model of "good logistic practical" to come true along the logistic chain that connects the port of with the Countries of the side south of the Mediterranean traguardando to the Europe North and Baltic Sea. With this we obtain a corridor that, using technological solutions integrated between they (for example, single window, traceability of the goods, electronic seal applied to the container), one is determined of velocizzare and simplifying the procedures tied to the transfer of the goods long the logistic chain".
In its participation the city council member to Infrastructures of the Region Liguria, Raffaella Paita, has asked Europe "financing and support to our projects because - she has emphasized - we have a route and a long thought from being able to express. We are not more the blocked Liguria. From our region a good possibility passes to give back overhong to the EU. The increase and the overcoming of the crisis in Europe pass through the role of the Liguria as door for the dialogue with the emergent countries".
"We are exiting - it has continued Raffaella Paita - from a long period of stasis in which they are begun to define precise scenes. Graces to a constant dialogue of the Liguria Region and from Liguria ports with the EU commission, the Italian government and the ministry of Infrastructures and the Transports have been possible to insert in the review of the transeuropee nets and in the package financial post the 2014 majority of the infrastructural projects that we consider priority for our territory, beginning from the Third Pass and from all those guiding ones along the Mediterranean arc that are connected to the Europe North". According to the regional city council member, "now servants to insert the Pontremolese in the map of the nets TRY, only so in fact can cover the maximum priority between the programmatiche proposals of development. Draft in fact of a strategic connection with the port breaks that it crosses areas to high economic development and connects the harbour system of Alto Tirreno with the markets of the Europe North".
