Porto Marghera (Port Code:ITPMA) is an industrial port and is the only Italian port capable of handling a massive project cargo. It was developed to give Venice a commercial and industrial port outside the city center. It was an industrial area known as Porto Marghera (English: Marghera Port) or Venezia Porto Marghera. During the First World War, the Italian government decided to develop an industrial zone and state-of-the-art port at Marghera on the mainland, opposite Venice and near the town of Mestre.
At the beginning of 2021, the construction of a new cruise terminal in this port was approved to free up the existing cruise traffic to the port in the center of Venice. The Italian authorities came to this conclusion due to the great discontent of the local population caused by the structural damage that large cruise ships generate to the city. Similarly, the creation of this terminal is expected to be a new opportunity to receive a greater number of cruise ships in a more organized way without a negative impact on the city.
