“For several years now, we have consistently
highlighted both the need and the importance of developing the southern part of
the port. By announcing this first-stage tender, we are taking a tangible
step toward the start of the largest project in the history of the Port of
Klaipėda. We plan to begin actual construction works already this year,” says Algis
Latakas, Director General of the Klaipėda State Seaport Authority.
Breakwaters play a
crucial role from an environmental perspective. In the future, the southern
gates complex will also include a marina and a quay. The construction of the
southern port gates marks the very first step in the overall development of the
southern port area.
