Issues
• When to use shortsea
or rail from Italy to
Northern Europe?
• Competitive position of
ports
• transit time by sea
Case Netherlands - Russia
• Shortsea to Russia (Baltic ports)
– 19 container and 2 Ro-Ro services
– 20 / 4 sailings per week
– Shortsea least expensive modality
– Transit time (slightly) longer than road and rail
• Rail
– Limited volume to Russia
– Mainly project cargo (machinery)
– Different rail gauge, transhipment Malaszewice
Issues
• In future one type of liability
vs CIM/SMGS
• Ports, maily St Petersburg
(were) often congested
• Growth use of trans-siberian
route
• Railferry Sassnitz-Klaipeda:
(slightly)
most5 westerly station of the
trans-siberian express.
