Valencia Port

Objective

As part of the plan, PAV is planning to invest €56.19m during this year and more than €177m during the period of 2018-2020. Of the €35.44m to be invested in the port of Valencia this year, €25.55m will be used for generating and conditioning new berths and surfaces. "The proposed dredging is expected to increase the draft of the three terminals from Valencia port by around 18m." €18.5m will be invested for dredging of the port’s Prince Felipe and Levante docks and for the improvement of the drainage of Príncipe Felipe, Levante and transverse wharves of Costa. The proposed dredging is expected to increase the draft of the three terminals from Valencia port by around 18m, enabling the port to handle a new generation of container ships, with more than 18,000 twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) capacities. PAV also plans to invest €3.7m for the paving of the old bulk terminal during this year.
