en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Management Committee of the Port Authority of Malaga, Spain, has approved a tender to commission a study on the construction of an underground road access to the port via the north-south axis of the Guadalmedina River.

The objective of this study is to identify multiple alternatives to improve the accessibility and integration of the port area with the city's main road infrastructure and its area of influence. The study will include the preparation of a preliminary design proposal, presenting solutions suitable for the new access. To this end, the connection of the port with the high-capacity road network will be assessed, particularly highways A-7, MA-20, and MA-22, as well as its functional integration with the Malaga ring road and the north-south axis of the Guadalmedina River. The new access aims to optimize port connectivity, improve logistics and tourism-related traffic flows, and promote more efficient and sustainable mobility to meet the demands of port growth and urban transformation.

Additionally, the Management Committee approved the results of the public tender for the occupation and operation of the new fish market, awarded to the Association of Fresh Fish Producers of the Port of Motril (Asociación de Productores de Pesca Fresca del Puerto de Motril).

The President of the Port Authority, Carlos Rubio, informed the committee of the institution's accession to the European Alliance for the Development of Railway Corridors and Trans-European Transport Networks (TENT-T). This alliance aims to promote the integration of the Iberian Peninsula and its connection with major European logistics axes. Malaga Port's membership in this international cooperation platform will facilitate collaboration with other port authorities and European institutions, using rail transport and intermodal transport as key tools to enhance logistics competitiveness, promote sustainability in freight transport, and advance the EU's decarbonization goals.
