The project, developed in the Bay of Alcegiras Port on the request of the infrastructure’s port authority, involves forming an esplanade outside the current seal wall, over 50 ha, with filling material. It is bound from the north by a gravity wall, 696 m long (and at a depth of 18.40 m) made up of 13 armed concrete caissons. It is also joined to the existing dike with a submerged concrete closure, to the south, using a 960 m long breakwater containment wall. This also connects to another gravity wall 1,018 m long (between 18.50 and 20.50 m deep) made up of 20 armed concrete caissons.
