The German bayernhafen Gruppe records an increase of the traffic
In the 2010 consisting increase of the volumes enlivened for railway and street way, while the shipments for fluvial way are diminished
March 24, 2011
Last year the German bayernhafen Gruppe, than work in the fluvial and intermodal terminals to Aschaffenburg, Bamberg, Nuremberg, Roth, Regensburg and Passau, has enlivened a traffic of 28.961.000 tons of goods for fluvial, railway and street way, with an increment of 13.4% regarding 25.544.000 tons in 2009 and with an increase of 3.1% regarding 28.084.000 tons in 2008.
The traffic enlivened for fluvial way is piled to 3.746.000 tons (- 4.5% on 2009), that for railway way to 7.129.000 tons (+32.5%) and that for street way to 18.086.000 tons (+11.4%).
bayernhafen Gruppe has announced that, in the fluvial segment, if in the 2010 terminal on the Danube they have recorded a bending of the traffic of the goods, in those on Less and on the Less-Danube channel the traffic is increased. One of the reasons of the bending of the traffic on the Danube - it has explained the society - reside in the slower resumption of the economy in Southeastern Europe and the repercussions still not perceived on the produced ones iron and steel. "I consider but - it has specified the managing director of the German company, Joachim Zimmermann - than in the course of this year the irrobustirà total resumption and that also the traffic via water will see a mainly positive development".
However Zimmermann, that he takes part of the directive council of the association of inland port German (the Bundesverband Öffentlicher Binnenhäfen), has expressed worry for the plan of the federal ministry of the Transports that he previews to subdivide the net of national fluvial ways in Core Network and a secondary net: the way is not that - it has observed - to reach the objective to move the goods towards more respectful modalities of transport of the atmosphere.
