La Spezia Container Terminal (LSCT), part of the Contship Group, is moving forward with its expansion plans by launching a tender for the first phase of the new Ravano terminal's construction.
The construction project, as outlined in the executive plan, will be executed in two phases. Interested parties have until the 3rd of September to submit their applications, with the contract expected to be awarded by the end of December.
This expansion aims to boost LSCT's handling capacity from 1.4 million TEU to 2 million TEU and significantly increase rail usage, targeting 50 percent of total throughput.
Matthieu Gasselin, CEO of the Contship Italia Group, stated, “We are integrating a crucial component into our strategic development plans, positioning LSCT as a key player in global trade by capturing new market shares.”
