"We have exceeded several records in the course of 2015 - it has specified the extraordinary commissioner of the Harbour Authority, Zeno D' Augustin - but in reality does not interest to us to draft of the classifiche, because the numbers go read and interpreted. A port is something more than a position in a table that can vary from year to year. We wish to make to emerge that Trieste has a polyvalent character more and more. Not alive only container or only oil, in spite of the liquid bulk has a primary weight for us. We do not want to only look to these two fields - it has added Of Augustin - but to invest on the diversification, true added value for a modern port of call. Intermodal and railway traffic will be the levers on which heading. Trieste must grow more always looking to logistic integration earth-sea".

"Trieste - it has observed the Harbour Authority - is a port leader for the intermodalità, and in order to see the relief that the quota the unitizzato intermodal traffic is assuming inside of the port is worth it to make a total reasoning, also in numerical terms, than integral handling of the container and the ro-ro. Expressing in teu equivalents also the traffic of the cargo units enlivened on marine ships ro-ro and adding them to the container - it has explained the agency - is arrived to 1.178.783 teu worked in 2015 (+0.44%)".
