Infrastructural structure and last mile

The macro-area defines the infrastructural layout with an overview of the services of the port “shoreside”.
The analysis has been carried out with a multi-level perspective, from the regional infrastructural connections to those of last mile. All types of infrastructure that impact port logistics are analyzed, distinguishing “nodes” and “networks”.

The North Tyrrhenian Port Network Authority’s logistic node is a complex unitary system, consisting of the following: logistics and manufacturing, industrial, plant and environmental equipment, energy and telematic networks and services that constitute a coherent set of infrastructures and activity centres.
The infrastructures are designed to interact functionally and are connected, through logistical corridors, to large production and distribution centres.

The presence of freight villages and logistic distribution platforms within the network consents modal integration, offering more services than just the transport and routing of goods and passengers.

The multidimensional and multimodal network system guarantees full connectivity of the port network with the metropolitan area of central Tuscany and consequently with the Italian network.

What emerges from the analysis is the need commonly investigate in depth and define, the last mile road network, in particular for the major ports, being able to count on, among other things, advanced work groups and projects on the subject.
