The Port of Ravenna:
the port of the Emilia Romagna Region
The Port of Ravenna, the only port in the Emilia-Romagna Region, is a multipurpose port and an intermodal platform with logistics services, including high added value, equipped with port terminals and rail freight yards at its service, as well as direct connections to the main road network.
It is included among the “Core Ports” of the TEN-T Networks, and is part of both the Baltic-Adriatic Corridor and the Mediterranean Corridor: here its strategic position!
By virtue of this strategic geographic position is a port leading for its trade not only with Northern Italy and Central Europe, but also with the markets of the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea and plays an important role as regards trade with the markets of the Middle and Far East.
The new maritime station – An investment of 28 million euros
The investment will be implemented in Project Financing (Public-private partnership) and implies a concession agreement of 33 years with the scope of managing boarding and disembarking services and passenger transit at the Port of Ravenna, in addition to the construction of the new Cruise Terminal. The total amount of the concession for 33 years is € 199 million.
The new terminal and other planned investments
The Port of Ravenna Authority aims to increase cruise traffic by redeveloping the existing cruise terminal. The surrounding area will become a public park for tourists and local inhabitants to enjoy.
The project places a strong focus on environmental sustainability by investing in a Cold Ironing system (providing shoreside electrical power to ships at berth), in addition to developing a vast green area called Dune park.
The project will be implemented on a surface of about 182.000 m2 in the beach town of Porto Corsini, and will be sub-divided into 2 areas:
1.Cruise terminal facilities: 62.000 m2,
2.Green areas and services for tourists (Dune park): 120.000 m2
The new passenger terminal will cover 10.000 m2, including outside pedestrian areas and the access point to the dock.
The Maritime station building will have two floors for 10.000 m2.
