The Minister of Transport, Mario Meoni, and the President of the Chamber of Deputies, Sergio Massa, analyzed this Thursday (27.02.2020/XNUMX/XNUMX) the possibility of working on legislation that establishes a direct connection point between the provinces of Tierra del Fuego and Santa Cruz, without having to cross into Chile and then return to national territory.
In this regard, Meoni stressed that "We are working very actively to have a project that allows us to have a connection between our provinces and thus gain the sovereignty that we deserve, which also has a very important impact on the economy of the region because we would significantly reduce transportation and transfer costs.«.
At the Ministry of Transport They consider it of vital importance and priority to unite the continent with the island, through a ferry service that connects Puerto San Julián to Río Grande, in order to improve connectivity, reduce costs and advance national sovereignty, said sources from the portfolio.
Meoni was received in Congress by Massa, with whom he shared a meeting with the governor of Tierra del Fuego, Gustavo Melella; the president of the block of National Deputies for the Frente de Todos, Máximo Kirchner; and the deputy from Tierra del Fuego, Mabel Caparrós.
