In Naples, the final workshop of the network CTUR on the impact of cruise traffic on the city

It will be held tomorrow and Friday at the Maritime Station

Tomorrow we will open the Maritime Station of Naples, the final workshop will last two days of the thematic network CTUR (Cruise Traffic and Urban Regeneration) of URBACT II. The network addresses the issue of cruise traffic and its impact on the city in terms of economic growth and urban regeneration and involves a total of 12 partners, including nine European cities, a non-European and two Port Authority in Helsinki, Alicante, Valencia Region, Istanbul, Rhodes, Rostock, Dublin, Matosinhos, Port Authority of Leixoes, Varna, Trieste, Naples and Port Authority of Naples as a leader.

The port cities are facing a double challenge: the first involves the reception ports by providing for the adjustment of traffic, trying to intercept the possible influx of tourists and other interested cities to reassert its strategic position in the wider European territorial area, attracting more tourists. This is why the cruise traffic has been chosen as the main theme from the network CTUR.

Naples and its Port Authority will host the seminar will provide an opportunity to present the results obtained in 30 months of work. In addition, the exhibition will be inaugurated on the 11 local action plans, one for each partner city, developed during the work of the network.

As for Naples, the Local Action Plan of the city affects the growth of the city's low from Piazza Municipio Square Market and adjacent to the port. A number of actions have been identified and many activities are born from the ideas of the working group composed of public and private stakeholders constituting the group of local support the project.

Participants in the seminar, in addition to representatives of the network of cities, representatives of the Association of AIVPA port cities, towns and other observers-an interest in the network, in addition to the group of local media and local institutions.
