PMO News Portal - In the meeting of the Council of Deputies
of ports and maritime organization in Urmia port, Mohammad Rastad pointed out
that instead of taking water to the shore, due to the unclear behavior of water
level in Lake Urmia, creating an access bridge is a better solution due to less
environmental compacts.
Rastad stated: Despite the fact that for a period of time,
cargo and passenger transportation activities were carried out in this lake;
But currently, considering the situation of the Urmia lake water level,
creating an access bridge and reviving marine tourism is a big task.
Referring to the need for planning in this regard, Rastad
added: the construction of a suitable recreational vessel in this lake is being
considered by the Maritime Deputy.
PMO’s Managing director concluded: In case of creating an
access bridge and implementing the study plan of Urmia port, PMO will provide
special facilities for the construction of vessels to domestic investors.
