Valparaiso (Chile): a more efficient port and optimised spaces for the city

Goal 3.4

Reducing the negative impacts of periods of peak activity in the City Port territory by any means possible.

Challenge(s)

How to redesign the cargo transportation between the port and its cargo facilities without hindering the city’s traffic ?

Best Practice

Establishing a new road layout for the city and the port is one way of improving port competitiveness, reducing the environmental impact of port activities, and optimising the accessibility of city/port sites. The creation of new access points can also result in the availability of new spaces. ZEAL, integral to Chile’s port system, optimises cargo operations in Valparaíso by coordinating traffic through SILOGPORT. Strategically located away from the city centre, it manages over 500,000 trucks annually, enhancing port competitiveness while minimising traffic congestion.
