The objective is to facilitate cross-border traffic between nearby and immediately connected locations such as, in addition to Izola, Capodistria/Koper, Portorose/Portoroz and Pirano/Piran, which are the destinations and the points of departure of daily traffic and interchange with Trieste. ''This measure - Dipiazza underlined - would bring big benefit to all these places and to the current situation of connections and economic and human relationships in this area.
