Barcelona, 12th of March 2012 – ADELTE, the world leading designer and manufacturer of sophisticated Passenger Boarding Bridges (PBBs) for cruise and ferry terminals, will design, manufacture and install five PBBs which will operate at the new Kai Tak Terminal designed by the well-known architect Norman Foster.
