Announced for the middle of last year, the line between the Valletta and Augsburg ports have been activated in November but then just as suddenly suspended, with the justification by the sea carrier for routine checks to the ship. Justification other than that given by the Port System Authority of the Sea of Sicily Oriental, according to which the Artemis catamaran was already landed at the port of Augusta last October to make some technical checks pending ratification of the concession by part of the Sicilian port authority. The AdSP refers to the maritime state concession of the south pier ferries of the port augusta commercial whose release to Ponte Ferries is was announced today by the Port System Authority.
Ponte Ferries, joint venture between the Maltese Magro Brothers Investments and Merill Invest (the latter already present in the liner maritime services sector with the participation in the Gozo Fast Ferry), announced the reactivation of the link for the middle of next month. See.
