The board of Huelva Port Authority unanimously approved to grant administrative approval for the Naviera Armas to begin the process for setting up a regular line of passenger and goods that Canarian ports of Las Palmas and Santa Cruz de Tenerife with the Peninsula through the port of Huelva.
therefore the Huelva are in luck with this new horizon that opens from the Port of Huelva abroad for its economy and diversification of services provided from a port that I have always advocated as one of the most dynamic and most likely our region and our country.
We are living historic moments for the port and the province of Huelva, and this is the first time ever in the province of Huelva we have a line of passengers and goods between Huelva, Canary and incidence in northern Africa, responding well to a historical aspiration of the port of Huelva.
is a very important and even more crucial given the turbulent times for the economy we are living. The draft Naviera Armas, which already operates the Iberian Peninsula through a regular line Portimao, includes the installation of a passenger ship terminal 250 square meters, which is projected through a prefabricated building for easy mounting on the ground in which the company will invest 126,500 euros, adding 300,000 for the works detailed adaptation of the South Pier.
For this, the ship being built in the Canary Island shipyards Zamakona of Bilbao, a floating pontoon, which is necessary for the terminal, which costs about five million euros, bringing the total investment of this initiative amounts to almost 5.5 million euros.
addition, the company is withheld to cover the ferry liner 'Teide Volcano', now in its final phase of construction in the shipyards of Vigo. It is a vessel of 175 meters long, 26.5 meters wide, 2,000 linear feet of ferries and passenger capacity of 1,200 people, who can reach a cruising speed of about 25 knots. Naviera Armas is investing in it 125 million euros.
And while this liner comes with a round trip week, 28 hours, has the vocation to complete a connection of three trips a week.
But it should be noted that this facility online by the Arms shipping has become the port of Huelva on strategic and economic asset for these kinds of connections for passengers and goods, because there are other major companies in the European market interested in starting a business similar to that of weapons and that the Port has maintained some contact.
And, I insist and insist, the Port of Huelva is ready to welcome the largest ship, the cruise or ferry currently operating on site, is ready for all possibilities of diversification of activities you bid or present. We have a port very prepared and very versatile.
