The container terminal in the Port of Cádiz

closed

The construction works at the new container terminal in the Port of Cádiz is a project awarded to FCC that consists of the first stage in the development of a new terminal with an area of 22 hectares, a quay length of 590 metres and a 320-metre long sea wall.This new terminal will enable the current container traffic to be transferred to installations with better equipment and services and a location that will avoid heavy traffic passing through the city centre and also separate passenger and merchandise uses within the port area. The new terminal will significantly increase the storage facility area and allow larger ships to moor, with the depth being increased from the present 10.5 metres at the existing container zone to 18 metres at the new terminal.These works combine the constructive systems of rockfill, caissons and cubic concrete blocks, include the dredging of the necessary adjacent areas for ship manoeuvring and will guarantee depth.
