The Board of Directors of the Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (PAB) was informed today in detail about the Master Plan for Infrastructures for the Port of Palma, which provides for exterior expansion and remodelling of its port facilities. The plan is undergoing its final draft and the finalization of the Strategic Environmental Assessment Study. The project includes a new external dock which, with the acquisition of greater surface area and mooring lines, will improve the distribution of merchandise and passenger traffic, cruise ship traffic, docking for recreational vessels and boat reparation facilities, among other activities. In addition, areas near the urban core could provide the basis of a port-city project being developed with the City Council of Palma
