Works begin to complete the quays at the port of Taureana di Palmi

Construction has started on the completion of the docks at the Port of Taureana di Palmi, a EUR 7.5 million project awarded to SILEM, Società Italiana Lavori Edili Marittimi, with a duration of 20 months.

The works will finish the shoreline docks and enclose the entire perimeter of the port waterway, expanding available space on land and at sea, increasing the number of berths and improving navigation, safety and the quality of services.

Starting the works required a complex administrative and operational process to clear the affected waterways and land areas, involving six concessionaires who had to vacate them.

The Port System Authority will seek alternative solutions and spaces so that nautical activities can continue wherever possible during construction, limiting disruption to operators.
