Since 1991, the year in which the Outer Abra Expansion works started; the Port Authority of Bilbao has invested nearly 500 million euros to reclaim more than two million square meters from the sea. Three kilometers of piers and one and a half kilometers of outer sea walls have been created and five docks have been built.<\/p>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"one_half column-last bbcol\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The final part of the port of expansion within outer Abra area foresees development of the Central Quay, and it is divided into the 2 parts:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Phase I of the Central Quay (2014 \u2013 2019) \u2013 Quay A6 and Part of Quay A5 with a total new 1,081 m of quay length as well as the creation of an additional 330,000 m2 of port operations area for cargo handling operations. (Future Proofing Bilbao)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Phase II of the Central Quay (2020-2024) &#8211; Quay A4 (665 quay length) and the rest of the Quay A5 (277 m), and development of additional 300.000 m2 port operations area (containerized cargo). Phase II is not part of this Project.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"clear\"><\/div><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is a major investment into the ports basic infrastructure, that significantly raises the ports capacity, enabling port to handle increased general cargo and container freight flows, and, in middle term, allows Bilbao to meet traffic growth expectations predicted by the Transport 2050 roadmap to a Single European Transport Area. The two-phase approach for development of the Central Quay is based on necessity to balance the port development needs and predicted capacity constrains on the one hand, and the commercial precaution to avoid overcapacity and deployment on the other.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18578\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18578\" style=\"width: 1100px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a class=\"thickbox\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bilbao_future_proofing.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18578\" title=\"Bilbao future proofing advance\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bilbao_future_proofing.png\" alt=\"bilbao_future_proofing\" width=\"1100\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bilbao_future_proofing.png 676w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bilbao_future_proofing-150x46.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bilbao_future_proofing-535x165.png 535w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bilbao_future_proofing-250x77.png 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18578\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bilbao future proofing advance<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Future Proofing Bilbao (2015 \u2013 2019) action includes the following activities:<\/p>\n<div class=\"one_half bbcol\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Development of the Central Quay adjacent area (2015)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Main infrastructure works of the Central Quay (Phase I) (2016 \u2013 2019)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stabilizing Punta Lucero Steep Rock Hillside, using the resulting material for Central Quay (Phase I) Main infrastructure works (2016 \u2013 2018)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Technical assistance for surveillance and quality control for the Central Quay (Phase I) Main infrastructure works (2016 \u2013 2019)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Technical assistance for environmental surveillance for the Central Quay (Phase I) Main infrastructure works (2016 \u2013 2019)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Urbanization of Central Quay Project (Phase I) (2019)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"one_half column-last bbcol\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Estimated cost of the action: <strong>\u20ac116,241,420<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Maximum EU contribution: <strong>\u20ac23,248,284<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Percentage of EU support: <strong>20%<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"clear\"><\/div><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Info sheet about this project is available at: <a href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/inea\/sites\/inea\/files\/fiche_2014-es-tm-0433-w_final.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/inea\/sites\/inea\/files\/fiche_2014-es-tm-0433-w_final.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Disclaimer:<br \/>\nThe sole responsibility of this publication lies with the author.
