- Wrong - emphasize the operators of the port of La Spezia
- identify only in the terminals the responsibility of the
congestion at the entrance of the airport
-
- Necessary - they highlight - to define a more
effective and decisive
-
In a note the operators of the port of La Spezia - terminalists,
shipowners, shipping agents, freight forwarders and customs officers -
representatives to the Sea Resource Partnership Body
of the Port System Authority of the Eastern Ligurian Sea
replied to the protest of the organizations
of road transport for the non-adoption of the ordinance on timing
loading, unloading and waiting of trucks in the port of La Spezia, which is
was rejected as part of the AdSP partnership table
(
of 31
May 2022).-
- Specifying that he has reiterated "several times and more
occasions full adherence to choices that allow regulation
of the accesses to the port of heavy vehicles and the introduction of
levels of services, stating that these measures are at
in favour of the efficiency of the entire logistic-port chain',
in the note the operators of the port of La Spezia recalled that,
'after the first ordinance, introduced, has been tested
a few months ago, the operators had asked for a technical table,
formed by all stakeholders for
analyze and share the reasons for the occurrence of moments of
congestion at the entrance to the port and identify solutions to
process and management, which are applied and followed by all
actors would have identified new and innovative flows aimed at
improve the entire process, believing that before adopting a
final regulatory order would have been more useful and
correct to understand upstream the reasons for excessive traffic, schedules
and the most critical days. The indication in summary was and is
that of intervening on the causes that originate the problem and not to
merely sanction its effects.'
-
- Operators pointed out that the ordinance, on the other hand,
'identifies only in the terminals the responsibility for the
congestion at the entrance to the port, a question instead of, given the fact that
by the operators, it is to be traced back to a co-responsibility
among the many who contribute to the departure and arrival of goods,
reason why it would have been appropriate to be involved in the table
technical of all public and private actors'.
-
- "In the port of La Spezia - it is also recalled in the note -
work is underway to execute the redesign investment
the Maritime Station and the extensions of the port areas,
which is why the AdSP was invited to review the timing of
approval by postponing the introduction of the measure, pending
to understand how the traffic flows would really change and
then the consequent accesses to the merchant port, in the absence of one
study of the viability of port areas'
-
- Giving reasons for the rejection of the ordinance, the
operators have specified that "it was considered
also that the insertion of penalties or rewards
in the order against a single port entity would not have
taking into account the multiple operational aspects and all the subjects
interested parties who contribute to the operations of access of the means
heavy in port".
-
- "Faced with these assessments - continues the note -
we consider it incorrect to communicate partial readings on what
happened, as we believe it is wrong to ignite tensions on problems
which are evident to all port and logistics operators.
We express regret for not having understood the reasons for our
requests, exclusively aimed at defining a more
effective and decisive and all based on safeguarding
port efficiency and operations, instances that
go in the assumption of full responsibility in favor of
of our port'.
-
- "The operators of the port community - he concludes
the note - they have always favored innovation and new procedures aimed at
to improve operations by enhancing every possible
element that could enrich the relationship with the city,
reason why we send back to the sender the idea of wanting to keep one
status quo. However in the interest of our port and the economy
which represents for the territory and for the employment value that
produces and guarantees, we remain as always at your disposal
to find together and in a shared logic all the solutions to
problems that go in the direction of greater efficiency and
a necessary and fundamental harmony with the community
citizen'.
