Balearic Islands’ Port Authority has announced today that passengers travelling from la Savina port to Ibiza port will be allowed to make an stop over at es Martell, before culminating the call at the future Maritime Station, that will be located at commercial quays.

APB pretends to respond the anxieties expressed by Formentera residents, willing to disembark closer to the city centre. Goods traffic with Formentera is also guaranteed and will be located at commercial quays, thus enabling the continuity of seafront promenade al along the port.

APB will build a pier as a halt in es Martell, where only passengers’ ships coming from la Savina will be able to dock there. Shipping lines will have the chance to stop in that halt for passengers’ disembarkation. After that, commercial quays of Maritime Station will be the end of the route.

The proposal came ahead this morning to Vicent Torres and Jaume Ferrer -Ibiza and Formentera Island Council’s Presidents- and Rafael Ruiz -Vila Mayor- by APB president, Mr. Joan Gual de Torrella in a meeting held in Ibiza city council.
