MoS: the paradigm for the development of modern ports

Gian Luigi Miazza President of Ligurian Ports Association

Savona Vado, Genoa, La Spezia: three of the leading Italian ports located along a 130 km coastline Over 50 private port terminals equipped to handle all key commodities

Ligurian Ports

Port of Genova

Ligurian Ports traffic

2014 throughput: 3.5 million TEU 79 million tonnes of cargo 20% of container and Ro-Ro traffic to Med Countries (MoS services)

Port of La Spezia

Ligurian Ports potential catchment area

Ligurian ports vs Norther Range ports on ULCS services from Suez: > 4 days savings on sea routes > 100.000 €/day savings on ship operating costs > 40% savings on carbon footprint

Traditional meaning in Italy (modal shift): Ro-Ro shipping alternative to road haulage DG-MOVE concept (modern and wider): maritime-based intermodal services implementing sustainable and cost-efficient logistics chains and improving access to European markets Thus giving relief to the European road system but… putting high pressure on ports! > concentration of traffic and their impacts > demand for more efficiency in the sea-land interface

Motorways of the Sea

Just some of the issues Port Authorities have to cope with… Port-side Quays fitting the growing dimensions of ships Wider yards for increasing volumes of loading and unloaded cargo Smart port-gates coupling the needs of fast cargo clearance and proper controls Last mile Rail

> Efficient port (and line) railway system: tracks, yards, junctions

> Effective shunting (and traction) services > Well-organized intermodal terminals Road > Fast connection to motorways > Well-organized port road system > Wide (and smart) parking areas for trucks and trailers

Ports for MoS (1)

Environment Ship, equipment, vehicle emission reduction Port and intermodal operation noise abatement Energy and waste management Transport chain integration PCS alignment with e-maritime, e-freight and e-customs initiatives Interoperability of different freight transport operators’ IT systems Simplification and informatisation of transport administrative procedures

Ports for MoS (2)

Promoter selection through EU call for tenders procedure: APM Terminals Vado Ligure Spa (design, financing, construction and management of the container terminal) PPP on a BOT basis Total cost: 450 M€ Private investment: 150 M€ Public contribution: 300 M€ (105 M€ EIB loan signed) State of the works - May 2015 (30%) Work completion due by 2018

Port of Savona Vado

Vado Ligure Deep Sea Container Terminal

Port of Vado Ligure railway link National network junction Port of Savona railway link Vado Ligure railway yard (electrified) Vado Ligure intermodal terminal TEN-T railway network (to Genoa, Marseille, Turin, Alessandria)

Efficient «last mile» connections:

The railway lines linking the port basins of Savona and Vado to the network are directly run by the Port Authority. Port railway links

Port of Savona Vado

VIO intermodal centre

• TEN-T RRT core node,

part of the Rhine-Alpine corridor

• Among the 24 intermodal centres

acknowleged by the Italian law n.240/1990

• Total surface 23 ha, including:
• New railway terminal area
• 60,000 sqm warehouses

Port of Savona Vado

TEN-T Projects MOS: West-Mos – studies aimed at identifying development opportunities and strategies for MoS services in the Western Mediterranean 2008: West-MoS market study result: 600.000 tonnes potential traffic on Savona – Valencia routes 2012: Savona enters the Grimaldi Italy/Spain network (Barcelona-Valencia-Livorno-Savona quadrangular service) 2014: Traffic on the Savona/Spain route exceeds 1 million tonnes

Intermodal chain integration Collaboration among Agenzia delle Dogane, Capitaneria di Porto, Port Authorities, transport

• perators, lead to significant improvements in transport chain efficiency, based on IT

technology solutions. Preclearing procedure Since 2014 on Far East – Ligurian Ports routes, container document transmission can be anticipated upon ship entrance in the Med Sea, allowing immediate Customs clearance after cargo unloading Customs fast corridors Just after unloading, containers can be transferred through IT-controlled routes from ports to inland logistic centres, where Customs procedures and inspections will then be performed. 2008: rail fast corridor port of Genova – Rivalta Scrivia inland terminal 2014: road fast corridor port of La Spezia – S. Stefano Magra 2015: road fast corridor ports of Genova/La Spezia - IKEA logistic centre Piacenza

Ligurian Ports

In conclusion, Motorways of the Sea are a smart concept… introducing challenging tasks for ports Ligurian ports are working hard to meet all the demands, through port infrastructure improvement road and rail system developmet IT solutions for intermodal chain integration and procedure simplification The aim is to contribute positively to the reinforcement of the TEN-T network. But… this target cannot be achieved without a robust investment on the key element: human culture, experience, professional skills This is the added value required to accompany each change process… …and this is the great contribution that can come from TRAINMOS! Thank you!
