In the within of the European directive for the development of the rail shipment of the goods, that it previews nine Corridors on which the EU heads in order to return the transport of the goods competitive, the Adriatic-Baltic Sea Corridor today has as southern final terminals Bologna and the port of Ravenna, while must be been extended at least until Ancona. It has emphasized Confartigianato Transports Marche remembering that such demand is expressed with strong determination also from Region Marche. Interporto Marche, Harbour Authority of Ancona, local parliamentarians, institutions and associations.
"This demand - the secretary of Confartigianato has restated Transports Marche, Gilberto Gasparoni - has been advance longtime, but up to the present it turns out inevasa and hard it is the risk who Ancona remains excluded with "monstrous" penalizations is for the marchigiano productive system and of the central Italy that for infrastructure you anticipate that they risk to strongly being penalized".
Taking part to the recent forum from the title "the extension of the Corridor Baltic Sea-Adriatic in the within of the Macroregionale strategy", organized from the magazine Adriaeco, Gasparoni it has evidenced the importance that Ancona and the logistic platform of the Marche can re-enter in this corridor promuovendo also marchigiane infrastructures, is in terms of commercial opportunities towards the Baltic Sea is in matter of logistics and development of the aces of road and railway connection. "He would not be comprehensible - it has specified - than the corridor was deviated from Ravenna towards the Tyrrhenian one in order to leave the central Adriatic and of the south without railway infrastructures dedicated to the goods. It would be truly a cut to the development of the imprenditoria of these regions. It would be moreover a mortification for the port of Ancona and the logistic platform of the Marche that carries out an essential function for the connections between the Mediterranean Countries with central Europe".
"Confartigianato - it has continued Gasparoni - shares the requirement to activate itself in co-ordinate and sinergico way eliminating political parochialisms and localisms activating a common direction that it can collect the requests and represent them in the opportune centers waves to introduce to the half appointment june in which the European Parliament will be called to approve of the corridor project".
"A battle - it has found the secretary of Confartigianato Transports Marche - already much fort so much so that it has been a pronunciamento unanimously of all the Regions of Europe that recognizes the Adriatic-ionic macroregion that will afford to carry the gravitational axis of Europe towards the Mediterranean. Also for these reasons minister Passera is interested that recently he has confirmed the engagement of the government for the extension of the corridor Baltic Sea-Adriatic until Ancona, and has assured that the relative formal steps are made".
"According to Confartigianato - it has concluded Gasparoni - it is necessary a strong action because it is not possible to miss the train of the European Parliament that will be called to finance the projects that will be realized within 2030, to lose this opportunity means to try again the paper of the corridor for 2050, but this would be equivalent not to speak more of".
