TRIESTE \u2013<\/strong> This week, construction will begin at the Port of Koper on the northern extension of Pier I, starting with the installation of the first steel piles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This marks the initial phase of a strategic project to boost container traffic, with the new operational infrastructure set to be completed by the end of 2027<\/a>. The work involves the gradual installation of 1,750 piles, each measuring between 60 and 70 meters in length, at a maximum rate of 100 piles per month. Operations will take place only on weekdays, between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., and will be subject to specific environmental conditions. Dredging to a depth of 16 meters and area preparation have already been completed, while two shipments carrying 250 piles each (totaling 5,500 tons) have arrived in recent weeks along with the pile-driving equipment.<\/p>\n

The project \u2013 awarded to Kolektor Koling In\u017eeniring in partnership with CGP \u2013 includes the construction of 326 meters of quay with two new berths<\/strong>, the expansion of operational space with 7 hectares of new yard area, marine dredging, and all complementary infrastructure<\/strong>. Once completed, the container terminal\u2019s capacity will increase to 1.8 million TEUs per year.<\/p>\n

The piles will be installed in two stages: initially to 80% of the depth using vibration, with the remaining 20% driven into place. The entire process will be subject to close environmental monitoring: in addition to standard parameters such as noise and dust, vibration and water turbidity will also be measured to ensure minimal environmental impact.<\/p>\n

The piles will be topped with prefabricated reinforced concrete caps and connected to prefabricated beams and crossbeams. As in the southern extension of the pier, a 70-centimeter-thick concrete slab will be built, waterproofed and overlaid with a second 30-centimeter slab<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The total value of the contract, also published at the EU level, amounts to \u20ac152.9 million (excluding VAT)<\/strong>. Luka Koper, the port operating company<\/a>, considers this investment essential to meet growing demand and to strengthen the port\u2019s role as a key container hub in the North Adriatic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
