"The portualità is a strategic field, a piece more hard of our economy and what it goes better. In Liguria, transhipment excluded, 60% of the goods pass that enter by sea in Italy. We will put again to the center this topic also with the government and will claim the right that to this point, after the conclusion of the first and more urgent tasks, is put to the center of the action of Palazzo Chigi also the issue portualità". The president of the Region Liguria, Claudio Burlando has said today, making the point on the series of works in progress in the ports of Genoa and Savona - I go.

For the port of call of the capital of Liguria the participations, illustrated with the president of the Harbour Authority of Genoa, Luigi Merlo, regard the functional recovery of descent mineral Oils and the widening of Bettolo descent, the requalification of the harbour zone from Benghazi descent to English descent, the widening of the terminal containers of the piers Ronco and Canepa and the activities of dredging of the harbour area.

The useful surface of the terminal will be of 303 thousand square metres and will afford to operate with container vessels of greater dimensions, thanks to the before backdrops the dock that, after the dredging not previewed in the project in course, will be able to reach the -15 meters. The material being necessary for a part of the filling behind the new dock will be proceeds from the dredging of the river mouth of the Polcevera torrent, neighbor to West of the Ronco pier, facilitating so the outflow to sea, now difficult.
