Making
Traffic Flow Smoothly
Trucks
will continue to provide a major share of transportation services.
In spite of congested roads, growing restrictions and increasing
financial burdens, they will retain a competitive edge mainly for
short hauls.
duisport is committed to the development of transportation chains
which shift cargo from the road to the waterway or the railroad.
Still, trucks remain indispensable for the local collection and
distribution of cargo departing from duisport or arriving in the
Port of Duisburg by ship or train.
duisport is ideally integrated into the highway system for these
operations. Five interstates and a number of Federal highways link
Duisburg with all major cities in Europe.
The Port of Duisburg vigorously supports improvements in the road
infrastructure in the port area and beyond. It is the objective
of these endeavors to make traffic flow smoothly to and from the
terminals and to minimize impacts on local residents.
