Important activities are also underway to redress pollution in the industrial area of Porto Marghera, at the edge of the central lagoon.
•
The project is an integrated system consisting of rows of mobile gates installed at the Lido, Malamocco and Chioggia inlets that are able to temporarily isolate the Venetian Lagoon from the Adriatic Sea during high tides.
•
Floods effects are further worsened due to greater erosion by the sea caused by human interventions to facilitate port activities (e.g. jetties, artificial canals); establishment of the industrial Porto Marghera area; and increased wash from motorized boats, which aggravate erosion of morphological structures and the foundations of quaysides and buildings.
