Investments in the port sector are a fundamental lever for the growth of Abruzzo
The port sector in Abruzzo is undergoing transformation, thanks to the strategic interventions promoted by the Region. President Marco Marsilio himself recently underlined the importance of strengthening port infrastructure to encourage the economic and logistical development of the region; a key lever for the growth of the territory as an international hub. In this context, the port of Ortona plays a crucial role, representing a strategic resource for the entire region.
The planned interventions include the improvement of the port infrastructures of Pescara, Vasto and Ortona. These projects aim to solve historical structural problems, improving the usability and efficiency of ports.
- Pescara: the construction of the north pier and the diversion of the mouth of the Pescara river are key interventions to improve the accessibility and safety of the port.
- Vast: the widening of the platform and the lengthening of the north pier will allow the arrival of the train on the platform, improving freight transport.
- Ortona: significant interventions are planned - and underway - such as dredging, the strengthening of the quays and the improvement of road and rail connections, with the aim of creating a highly competitive logistics infrastructure, where intermodality plays a key role.
The future of Abruzzo rests on infrastructure
The Port of Ortona at the center of regional development
The port of Ortona, thanks to recent investments, is destined to further strengthen its role as a focal point for trade and logistics in Abruzzo on a global scale. Interventions on the last mile of rail and road, in addition to dredging and upgrading of the quays, will significantly improve the operational efficiency of the port.
The benefits for port companies
Buonefra and all the companies operating in the Ortona port area will be able to benefit greatly from the planned and ongoing infrastructure works:
- Greater load capacity: the new infrastructures will make it possible to manage a greater volume of goods, improving operational efficiency.
- Better logistics connections: the strengthening of road and rail connections will make the transport of goods faster, more efficient and more sustainable, both in economic and environmental terms.
- Competitiveness: modern infrastructure and increased operational capacity will make local companies more competitive on an international level, attracting investments from all over the world.
Port logistics as a driving force for the regional economy
The initiatives launched by the Abruzzo Region therefore represent an opportunity of enormous strategic value for the port of Ortona and for the entire system connected to it. Investing in port infrastructure, as we have often underlined on the Buonefra blog, is essential to guarantee a future of growth and economic development for the entire region, because it is precisely port logistics that has been characterized for years as a driving force for economic growth. A relaunch project was necessary, and the port of Ortona is preparing to navigate this growth with pragmatism and experience.
