The report - realized by IRPET Toscana - pays attention to the relationship between the Port of Livorno and the Darsena Europa project. It analyses three point of views: the economic perspective, the transport system and the urban-territorial dimension. SRM has taken part to the research in the Chapter 2 titled “Scenario and perspectives of the Tuscan ports: the strategic projects, the Europa platform” with an in-depth analysis of the role of the Mediterranean area and China. The report is available in the Italian version.
