  • DFDS Tor Line compte sur une relance du trafic sur l’EuroBridge
    “Le service EuroBridge a réalisé une performance nettement inférieure à celle de l’année précédente en raison d’une baisse des volumes et d’une concurrence acharnée... Bien que les revenus générés par le service EuroBridge augmenteront cette année, leur niveau restera insuffisant.” Les informations sur le service EuroBridge entre Gand et Göteborg reprises dans le rapport annuel du groupe DFDS sont loin d’être positives et confirment la tendance négative dont il était déjà fait état l’année dernière. Mais il n’est nullement question d’une réduction ou d’une restructuration du service, à l’exemple de ce qui s’est passé avec NorBridge. “Le service sera maintenu dans sa forme actuelle et nous tablons sur une reprise des volumes à terme. Nous étudions d’ailleurs certains projets dans ce contexte”, nous a-t-on dit chez DFDS Tor Line. L’armement étudie par ailleurs avec les ports de Gand et Göteborg comme les coûts d’escale et de transbordement peuvent être réduits.

  • Pays-Bas: la loi ferroviaire ne règle pas la répartition de la capacité

A quelques semaines des élections parlementaires, c’est pain bénit pour la majorité violette.
