Ships with gross tonnage higher than the limits set by the decree will travel the canal Malamocco-Marghera.
"Thanks to the collaboration and commitment of all - he underlined Di Blasio - we managed to recover 50% of the programming of this year's cruises. We did it identifying temporary solutions, verifying their suitability with respect to the type of ships to be accommodated and the safety of the navigation and ground operations, compared to balancing between passenger and commercial /industrial traffic, always protecting environment and work. We started working immediately in integrated way to give a concrete and immediate response in a particularly difficult time for the cruise industry Venetian, in order to safeguard the destination Venice, the workers and the function of the port. That's only the first concrete step of a path that we are already building and that will see us engaged in the autumn to give a sustainable future for the cruise industry in Venice, having well in mind the value of the work of a vast community and hard hit in a very complex historical moment for the our port, where it is essential to work well, so organized and joining forces."
