Rønne Havn A/S has just completed the third stage of securing the port's future, which, in addition to helping to ensure Bornholm's security of supply, is also important for the port's future as a wind port.
Although one might think that an expansion of an industrial area could bring angry citizens with it, this is apparently not the case for the majority on Bornholm. A survey shows that there is broad local support among the people of Bornholm for the expansion and securing of the port. The port states this in a press release.
Over two-thirds (68 percent) of all Bornholm residents agree that an expansion of the port benefits the entire island and that it is important to future-proof this central part of Bornholm's infrastructure. This support, not surprisingly, brings joy to the port's CEO, Lars Nordahl.
- It is important for Bornholm that we future-proof the Port of Rønne, so that we can ensure both the security of supply and the climate protection of the island's central commercial port. Therefore, it is positive to see that the people of Bornholm across the entire island consider the expansion of the port as necessary and beneficial for Bornholm, he says.
However, the Port of Rønne's expansion plans do not stop at the third stage. The fourth stage of the expansion has already been initiated. Both stages of the future-proofing involve a comprehensive climate and safety upgrade of the island's central commercial port, including an extension of the outer pier and improvements to navigation with a larger swing basin. In addition, the project includes a new multi-purpose quay and a thorough deepening of the inner part of the port.
The future-proofing of Rønne Port contributes overall to ensuring Bornholm's security of supply and strengthens the port's position as the island's central commercial port.
The survey conducted by Opinion & The Other One among 302 representatively selected residents on Bornholm.
