Cooperation between the port of Genova and Savona (Genova)

Cooperation between the port of Genova and Savona

Type of solution: institutional / governance
Node: Genova


The ports of Genova and Savona are working together and this is not due only to the recent fusion between the two Port Authorities, but there are many common intents. The ports capacity expansion has limitations due to its location within the proximity of urban areas. Like most of the other Mediterranean seaports, but unlike leading Northern European hubs, land morphology forced ports and cities into a difficult coexistence; throughout its history Genova has painfully conquered this thin strip of land, however, the lack of large areas, particularly suited to accommodate manufacturing plants, forced the Genoese to spread out toward the sea, nestled between land and water. Currently, although territorial conditions are still the same, cities and ports have completely changed their attitude targeting the more complicated and multifaceted port-city design and focusing on a mutual development plan. Municipality and Port Authority are required to draw up their respective Masterplans simultaneously and to agree the terms and conditions of certain issues, namely those which focused on city-port relations: Urban Plan and Port
