With a productive and sustainable vision, the Province is moving forward with a key intervention for the port, tourism and urban development of the region.
With an investment from the Government of the Province of Santa Fe, the reconstruction of the dock at the Rosario River Terminal has begun, a long-awaited project that will allow the recovery of an emblematic space in the city and strengthen the port infrastructure of Santa Fe.
The project, promoted by the Ministry of Productive Development of Santa Fe and the Rosario Port Authority (ENAPRO), is part of the comprehensive port development plan being carried out by the administration of Governor Maximiliano Pullaro and Vice Governor Gisela Scaglia, with the aim of improving connectivity and strengthening Rosario's relationship with its riverfront.
During the bidding process, eleven companies submitted proposals , reflecting a high level of participation and transparency. In this regard, the Minister of Productive Development, Gustavo Puccini, emphasized that “the participation of eleven companies speaks to the level of participation and competition that our governor's administration seeks to foster, enabling us to be as efficient as possible in the use of resources.” He also added that the process resulted in savings of nearly 39%.
During the contract signing ceremony, the Secretary of Transportation and Logistics, Mónica Alvarado, emphasized the political decision to implement a comprehensive solution. “It will be a beautiful promenade, a window to the river, a continuation of the enjoyment of our riverfront, with a sustainable approach, urban amenities, LED lighting, but the important thing is what lies beneath, and that is the work that involves a new structure; it is a truly significant engineering project,” she stated.
For her part, the president of ENAPRO, Graciela Alabarce, highlighted that "this is the first major project undertaken at the River Terminal since its creation 70 years ago," and added that the infrastructure not only enhances its value but also opens the door to new possibilities, complementing the renovation of the terminal's Convention Center.
The project, in addition to its symbolic and urban value, is part of a provincial strategy to strengthen logistics and port infrastructure, which includes projects such as the third lane between Rosario and San Lorenzo, the projection of the port system towards Timbúes and the promotion of new public and private investments.
With this intervention, Rosario will recover a meeting point with the river and a new space for tourist, cultural and productive development, reaffirming the commitment of the Government of Santa Fe and ENAPRO to sustainable growth and territorial integration.
