The Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Edoardo
Rixi, announced that, with the approval of the amendment to the
conversion of the Commissioners' decree-law, new
resources for the construction of the new breakwater of the port of
Genoa. It is - he underlined - a "decisive step
for the completion of the new breakwater in Genoa,
strategic infrastructure for the national port system and the
competitiveness of the country".
"The measure - he specified - provides for the extension
of commissioner activities until 31 August 2027,
ensuring business continuity and coordination of
interventions, and introduces a financial reinforcement with 63 million
of euros for 2027 and 100 million for 2028. Resources - has
specified Rixi - will be used for the consolidation of the seabed and
the design adjustments necessary in the light of the most
recent geotechnical evidence. The intervention - he added - allows
to deal with more complex seabed conditions than
initial forecasts and to ensure the implementation of the Phase
A in compliance with safety and reliability standards,
keeping the timetable up to date".
