Severe weather is severely impacting maritime connections between Sardinia and the rest of the Italian peninsula. In the northwestern port, adverse sea conditions are forcing scheduled ships to change their routes for three days, from January 8th to 10th.
The Tirrenia-Moby ferry Moby Aki, scheduled to depart tomorrow morning, Thursday, January 8th, from the port of Genoa and scheduled to stop in Porto Torres, will be diverted to the Isola Bianca port in Olbia. This change in schedule will remain in effect for three days, until Saturday, January 10th.
Strong winds with gusts of up to 30 knots and rough seas forced companies to sail away from the western coast of Corsica, to avoid the turbulent weather and currents of the Strait of Bonifacio, opting for the Tyrrhenian coast.
For three days, the port of Porto Torres will be without connections to Genoa, a situation that prompts reflection on the need to begin infrastructure work at the port as soon as possible to ensure the safe entry and exit of ships. Regular connections will resume on Sunday, January 11th.
