The main works carried out were:

  • construction of 640 m of quay wall with draft of 14 m and 9 m consisting of (approved upon project variation) reinforced cellular concrete caissons and superstructure in reinforced concrete equipped with bollards, fenders, ladders, etc.;
  • reclamation works  of water basins and levelling of a hill to create quay areas of approximately 192,000 m²;
  • construction of sewers and rain water drains, paving of quay aprons;
  • construction of a covered canal 149,20 m long, of which m 137 are covered and accessible, for the deviation of a stream (Fiume Piccolo), at the Western end of the area. The canal has an internal rectangular section width 10 m  and height 2.48 m, with the slab and walls made of pre-stressed reinforced concrete;
  • arrangement of the outlet of the deviated canal (Fiume Piccolo), limited to the north by armour rock and the earth retaining wall of the quay area and limited to the South by a quay length 127 m with a draft of 1.90 m;
  • dredging works to -9.00 m and -14.00 m of the sea bed in front of the quay wall including underwater demolition and removal of a rock embankment called “Secca del Fico”, situated 150 m from the quays.
