The Port Authority of Alicante (Spain) has signed a contract with the University of Alicante to carry out technical assistance work focused on the analysis of the accessibility of the port with respect to the Mediterranean corridor towards the south of the peninsula. The project will be developed within a period of two months and has an award amount of 18,089.50 euros.
Specifically, the initiative will provide concrete proposals to improve the connectivity of the Alicante harbor with this important axis of the trans-European transport network, which will play a crucial role in the movement of goods from the Mediterranean coast to various European destinations.
In this sense, those responsible for the Alicante port enclave emphasize the strategic importance of the completion of the works of the Mediterranean corridor both for the Alicante enclave and for the province in general. This improvement is expected to contribute significantly to agility and competitiveness in logistics intermodality.
