“MSC confirms Venice cruises. It is obvious that we are hoping to get to the bottom, with what will be the Marghera mooring. But it is a good sign of recovery. We leave with two ships “. Ù
This was announced today by the governor of Veneto Luca Zaia. “It is obvious – added the president – that there is the issue of ” waterways to be solved ”, we must take the ships out of the San Marco basin and the Giudecca canal. In the last Committee it was decided that they will have to go through Canale dei Petroli and arrive in Marghera. Until the mooring in Marghera is ready, they will continue with the ordinary road network, but the change is imminent “.
Zaia spoke of a sign of recovery. “The return of cruises allows us to think that the world has not stopped. Venice is now deserted, but it will go back to being what it was before. We will take advantage of it to limit the flows, even if these are activities of the Municipality and not ours, but … ”. As for the debate on the Great Ships, the governor looks avabti. “It is obvious that we have to take the ships out of Giudiecca and the San Marco Basin. We are facing the Clini-Passera decree of February 2012, nine years have passed since then. The decision of the Comitatone is to build the Petroli canal for Marghera, but until this mooring is ready, it is possible and must pass through the Giudecca canal and MSC Cruises will do so to give a signal. We now hope that the port workers of Venice, who have been on the move for almost a year and a half, can return to work ”.
The two ships that will call from May will probably be Msc Orchestra and Msc Magnifica, with itineraries in the Adriatic and in Greece.
