Description

The draft project for the dry port traces back to 1995. The start of operations took place in 2001, through the link to the ports of Algeciras, Valencia, Bilbao and Barcelona. The port of Valencia early consolidated as the main synergy hoarder vis-à-vis the activity of the Dry Port of Coslada, amounting for the 92% of the freight volume by 2016.
