The expansion of the Port of Naples, including the construction of the Darsena di Levante, has been discussed for decades. The project, which has received over €277 million in public investment, including funds from the PNRR, is now complete, with a 248,000 square meter terminal and a reinforced seawall. However, the new terminal may not be fully utilized without adequate road and rail connections, which are still pending.
