Infrastructure rehabilitation project for the Port of Split, Croatia

The proceeds of the EBRD loan will be used for the extension and reconfiguring of the passenger wharves at the port.  The extension and rehabilitation of the wharves is required to increase the capacity of the existing infrastructure within the port area to allow for more efficient processing of the island ferry traffic and the entry of medium sized cruise ships into the port area. The rehabilitation of the port of Split infrastructure is being implemented as part of the Government’s long-term investment strategy to support the expansion of the tourism network in Croatia. The importance of efficient local transport infrastructure is recognised as one of the key factors to ensure the quality of service and expansion of the tourist offer in Croatia outside the limited number of major/well-known tourist hubs such as Dubrovnik and Istria.
