ADELTE’s first in France
Barcelona, 6th March 2009 – ADELTE has recently been awarded a contract by Marseille-Provence Cruise Terminal (MPCT) to design, manufacture and deliver this year at the Gare Maritime du Croisiere du Mole Leon Gourret, two mobile Passenger Boarding Bridges (PBBs) of the HYDRA range.
MPCT, which is co-operated by Costa Crociere, MSC Cruises and Louis Cruises is currently upgrading their passenger access facilities at the cruise terminal on the Leon Gourret Pier and have contracted the architects of Genoa-based Studio Vicini to lead this project which includes the construction of fixed elevated walkways leading from the cruise terminal building to the pier. After completion of these walkways, ADELTE will install the ordered couple of Passenger Boarding Bridges, symmetrically on the site. The boarding bridges will allow embarkation and disembarkation in a secure and safe manner, unaffected by weather conditions or tidal ranges.
