Les transporteurs routiers anversois tirent la sonnette d'alarme Les transporteurs routiers en ont ras-le-bal d'être le bouc-émissaire, alors que les poids lourds seront toujours nécessaires pour pouvoir continuer à vivre dans un Etat-providence. Ils demandent davantage de concertation avec et de bonne volonté de la part des autorités et des donneurs d'ordres afin de résoudre les problèmes existants. Au cours d'une conférence de presse à Anvers, ils ont critiqué les créneaux horaires trop limités, le Just-in-Time ("Just in Trouble"), la mauvaise organisation des travaux routiers et le manque de chauffeurs bien formés. Seatrade lance un service de retour sur l'Afrique du Sud Le 30 juin prochain, l'armement Seatrade, un des grands spécialistes des trafics reefer, assurera d'Anvers le premier départ d'un service de ligne régulier à destination de l'Afrique du Sud.

Wharfies feel need for speed Waterfront workers employed by Patrick in Sydney and Melbourne will have to maintain a productivity level of 20 lifts per hour if they are to qualify for incentive payments.
