Construction of a main four-lane access road and connection to port ring-road with construction of two new sections linking it to the existing road bridge, construction of lighting network in the greater area, connection of medium voltage network from existing substation to the new passenger terminal, construction of new sewage systems and landscaping of green areas and parking spaces for heavy goods vehicles and private cars. The development of the surrounding area extends over 25 acres.
