Project

The new breakwater of the Port of Genoa is designed to guarantee direct access to the terminal facilities and a wide turning basin for ultra-large ships to manoeuvre in full safety and, in addition, to cater for future carrier upsizing. Without this new port infrastructure, Genoa cannot expand and risks losing its competitive edge in the global shipping industry.
