Mingozzi (Common of Ravenna): a "railway maneuver" in Italy costs three times the rates of Rotterdam, Amburgo and of the European ports north
Also for this reason - the vice mayor has explained - the goods is oriented still on the rubber and the street transport, that it constitutes the true challenge in the times and the tariff conditions

"A "railway maneuver" in Italy costs three times the rates of Rotterdam, Amburgo and of the European ports north". It has emphasized vice mayor of Ravenna, Giannantonio Mingozzi, answering to the group leader of the Movement 5 Stelle, Pietro Vandini, than he has asked to it because it is not possible to head at the rail shipment in order to increase the harbour traffics of Ravenna.
"If it can be useful - it has replied the vice mayor - I would want to recap our engagements on railway infrastructures. For how much it concerns the projects in order to eliminate two level crossings in center to Ravenna through the realization of the underpasses, for an expense of 70 million euros, this investment it is not previewed in the progettone harbour because it is in quota RFI in the engagements that the Railroads of the State have assumed for our port - attached "Infrastructures Hub harbour signed Ra" from minister Lupi. A result I yield of the combined engagement of the community ravennate in its several expressions. On the intermodalità that cites councilman Vandini - he has added Mingozzi - can himself be said that Ravenna already today has good lines and railway connections, but is the services to being too much dear, because the costs that proposes for example Trenitalia Cargo are inaccessible for operators. A "railway maneuver" in Italy costs three times the rates of Rotterdam, Amburgo and of the European ports north: also for this reason - it has explained - the goods is oriented still on the rubber and the street transport, that it constitutes the true challenge in the times and the tariff conditions. For this I consider the fundamental E55 for next the 50 years of railway the new port and if they will arrive intermodalità we will be first to support them, also knowing that the operating costs are another chapter to which RFI it must start in order to wind down the rates".
