At the end of last month the Infrastructure Ministry published the final version of the Master Plans for the port complexes in Pelotas, Porto Alegre and Rio Grande. The document refers to the 3rd Port Planning Cycle (2015-2019). These plans are part of the effort by the Ministry of Infrastructure (MInfra) to improve the national port sector.  The first cycle started in 2010 and ended in 2012 with the development of the National Port Logistics Plan (PNLP) and Master Plans for 15 Brazilian ports.

The second phaze occurred between 2012 and 2015,where the PNLP and the 15 Master Plans developed in the first cycle were updated, as well as the development of Master Plans for the 22 ports that were not included in the scope of the first cycle.  The third cycle is developed within a structured and articulated planning framework, so that integration is guaranteed between all plans and are carried out smoothly throughout the process.

The importance of Master Plans is due to the guidance it provides for investment decisions, both public and private, in the infrastructure of port complexes and also in relation to strategic actions to be defined on topics involving port dynamics, with emphasis on port management, environment, operational improvements and port-city interaction.
