The Port of Ravenna

The Port of Ravenna is a multipurpose port and an intermodal platform offering high value‐added logistics services, equipped with port terminals with direct connections to the road and motorway network and to the national railway network. 

The Port of Ravenna is the only port in Emilia‐Romagna. Due to its strategic geographic position it serves Northern Italy and Central Europe and is a key port for the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea markets. 

It also plays an important role in trade with markets in the Middle East and Far East. 

Its inclusion in the comprehensive road system and its connection with the most important transport networks make the Port of Ravenna an accessible hub from the main Italian and European markets. 

For these reasons, it was included by the European Union among the Core Ports of the TEN‐T networks, and is part of both the Baltic‐Adriatic Corridor and the Mediterranean Corridor. 

It is also considered the southern sea‐river terminal of the Po Valle y ‐ Veneto inland waterway network. 

Participation in projects financed by European funds provides important resources for the construction of new infrastructure works and new ICT systems and platforms, as well as for increasing the environmental sustainability of port activities.
