Maritime Affairs Directorate Ensures Safety During Monaco Grand Prix

The Maritime Affairs Directorate (DAM) is taking preventive actions to ensure navigation safety and protect the marine environment during the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Monaco. Every year, a flyer is distributed by the DAM before major events such as the Grand Prix in May and the Monaco Yacht Show in September. The flyer is given to local boaters and pleasure boats in Monaco’s waters to raise awareness of the maritime regulations in the area. It is also shared electronically with the help of the Monaco Ports Operating Company and the Maritime and Airport Police Division.

In addition to raising awareness, the DAM is actively present on the water during the Grand Prix to enforce speed limits, regulate traffic in the ports, check water taxi permissions, and ensure compliance with navigation and anchoring restrictions. The goal is to ensure the safety of all participants and protect the marine environment during the high-attendance event. The DAM’s efforts are crucial in maintaining order and safety on the water during these major events in Monaco.

The distribution of the flyer and the presence of the DAM on the water demonstrate the commitment to promoting safe navigation practices and protecting the marine environment in Monaco. By providing information on regulations and actively enforcing them during events like the Grand Prix, the DAM plays a key role in ensuring the safety and well-being of all individuals on the water. The collaborative efforts with other organizations further enhance the effectiveness of these preventive actions.
