(Adnkronos) - “Prima del progetto "Fast Track to the Sea" avevamo notevoli inefficienze in termini di difficoltà con la lunghezza dei binari e l'infrastruttura ferroviaria e stradale che interferivano tra loro. Con questo progetto questi problemi saranno ora risolti. È importante nel contesto delle operazioni di movimentazione delle merci del porto stesso e ora ci aspettiamo che siano molto più efficienti e veloci” ha detto Tea Krizan, Project Officer CINEA - Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency durante la conferenza Final Event - Fast Track to the Sea che si è tenuta presso la sala Comitato dell’ente

00:00The project is funded from CEF, Connecting Europe Facility Programme.
00:10The programme as such is dedicated to development of high-performing, sustainable and efficient
00:16trans-European networks.
00:18We are talking here about transport, but also energy and digital.
00:23And this project, of course, in this area of transport, was selected for funding in
00:282019 under CEF Transport Call and was awarded 3.87 million euros of EU funding.
00:36I would say that in context of Porto Civitavecchia and development of the port, it's one of very
00:42significant investments, of course, one of very significant projects, because it resolves
00:48quite an important bottleneck that existed here in the port.
00:52We had quite some inefficiencies here before the project in terms of difficulties with
00:59rail length here and rail and road infrastructure interfering with each other.
01:05So with this project, I think it's quite a big impact and big achievement that these
01:10issues will be now resolved.
01:12It is important in context of the port cargo handling operations itself.
01:20So now we are expecting them to be much more efficient and faster.
01:25But of course, when we talk about the wider context and in context of European transport
01:29network, it's very important to note that now the movement of the cargo from maritime
01:36part from the sea to further to the railway network and vice versa is expected, of course,
01:41to be also more efficient and faster movement of cargo in this context.
01:46So this, I would say, is a really, really important impact that we are realizing here
01:54now with CEPF funding.
