The municipality of Balneário Barra do Sul, on the north coast of Santa Catarina, could get a port venture linked to a business and services complex. The project is called “Super Porto BBS”.
According to potential investors, the business could occupy an area of 25.5m m2. The planned investment amounts to R$4.8bn. The large project foresees the construction in stages of 15 port terminals to meet long-term demands arising from the expansion of international business of companies in the region and throughout the south of the country. The venture will have an access canal that is 18 meters deep to ensure the transit of large ships.
The port industrial complex will also have industries from different segments and an area of export processing zone – an EPZ – to serve exporting companies with tax advantages in the future. The BBS port will have its own railway extension far from urban areas and three road lanes for access to BR-101.
In addition, there are also areas for logistics services for 3,000 trucks, workshops, tire repair stores, shops, and hotels. The study also foresees commercial areas, residential single family homes, schools, a university, and a hospital. An area of 8.5m m2 will be preserved.
It is worth noting that everything still has to be done: from the first legal authorizations of the federal agencies operating in the segment – such as the National Agency for Water Transport (Antaq) to environmental agencies, such as Ibama, federal, and IMA, state.
The north coast of Santa Catarina already has the private port operating in Itapoá; the public port of São Francisco do Sul; private terminals in São Francisco do Sul, in addition to the projected Porto Brasil Sul, also designed for São Francisco do Sul.
