Eurogate presents passenger terminal improvements at Malaga port

Málaga, Spain (PortSEurope) November 18, 2018 - Eurogate Group Terminals has presented the modifications it has carried out to the Estación Marítima de Málaga, the passenger terminal of this city, for which it operates the concession. The terminal is dedicated to regular lines with Melilla and North Africa, and the changes will facilitate new services and improve the quality of the services. The station was inaugurated by José Luis Almazán, adviser of Eurogate Group Terminals, at an event attended by Paulino Plata, president of Autoridad Portuaria de Málaga (APM - Port Authority of Málaga) among others. Since November 2016, the date on which the concession of the facilities was granted, Eurogate Group Terminals has undertaken a project of remodelling and expansion of the maritime station, with an investment of €750,000. The reform of the Maritime Station of Malaga makes the city a port reference, including leisure and events offered, focused on improving the passenger experience, to which is added its excellent geographical situation. Proof of this is the increase in traffic experienced by the terminal since the concession to Eurogate Group Terminals, with an increase of more than 25% in passenger traffic and over 42% in vehicles. In the words of José Luis Almazán, adviser of Eurogate Group Terminals, "the remodeling of the Maritime Station represents a milestone in the port history of Malaga. This year it has broken the record of travelers in Operation Paso del Estrecho and we expect to close 2018 with the highest traffic of the last twelve years. This demonstrates the strength of the city as a reference port in the face of its competition, with a quality, modern service that offers added value to passengers. As well as the excellent work being developed by Eurogate Group Terminals two years ago ". For his part, the president of the Port Authority, Paulino Plata, stressed "the interest of Malaga in promoting relations with North Africa, may become gateway for these passengers to the Peninsula and the rest of Europe." Plata added that this traffic "is expected to reach 340,000 passengers at the end of this fiscal year. This action is a first step to fulfil the purposes in relation to these connections, and we hope that it will continue with other investments that will continue to be made.
