At present, average waiting times for the handling of our barges in the seaports are:
Antwerp: 47 hours
Rotterdam: 40 hours
At present, three hurdles are combining to hinder our transports. From Thursday 12 to Monday 16 August, the EMX Terminal in Rotterdam will not be accepting any empty containers. Also in Rotterdam, APM Terminals Maasvlakte II will not take any dangerous goods containers until further notice. This affects all transport modes.
In addition, since Tuesday evening members of the German train drivers’ trade union (GDL) have been on strike, and of course this also affects goods transport.
We hope for your understanding of any delays that may occur as a result of this situation, and we ask you to pass this information on to all responsible personnel in your company. If you have questions and/or require further information, our personnel will be glad to help you. We will keep you informed of further developments.
