Proger entrusted with the strategic planning of the port system of the Strait of Messina

The JV led by Proger and consisting of the companies Dinamica and Systematica was tasked with the drafting of the System Strategic Planning Document by the Port System Authority of the Strait.

The DPSS defines the development objectives and systemic planning contents of the port authorities; it identifies and perimeters the areas intended for  port and rear-port functions, the port-city interaction areas, the last mile infrastructural links of road and rail type with the individual ports of the system, the crossings of the urban center; it ensures a clear and unambiguous identification of the addresses, rules and procedures for the drafting of the individual Port Regulatory Plans.

Proger and the other companies of the JV will have five months to prepare the DPSS, which must then be submitted for the opinion of the municipalities concerned, the Calabria Region and the Sicily Region and finally approved by the Ministry of Sustainable Infrastructures and Mobility. This opens a decisive planning phase for the growth of the port and rear-port system under the responsibility of the AdSP.  According to the Document, it will be possible to start the drafting of the Port Regulatory Plans for the ports of Milazzo, Reggio Calabria, Villa San Giovanni and Saline and the updating of that of Messina. Solutions to the many existing criticalities will be proposed in order to support the development of port activities and to ensure increasingly modern and quality services to passengers and operators.
