The northern pier at Bardolino port was officially reopened on December 30, after being out of use due to structural deterioration and damage from a 2023 incident. The new steel and wood pier, part of a €340,000 project funded partly by the Veneto Region, enhances water transport infrastructure, allowing Navigarda to dock two boats simultaneously and improving public lake transportation.
The project, costing €204,000 including design, also includes replacing catenaries and partial dredging of the port area. The upgrade addresses safety concerns following the April 2023 incident when a passenger boat damaged the southern pier, and additional maintenance works are underway to ensure sustainable port operations.
