In the third quarter of 2023, there will be a new drinking water supply point at the Haparanda Dam. There was already a drinking water supply point at the Haparanda Dam and in the Afrikahaven, but there was high demand for a second one. At this new drinking water supply point, there is no car drop-off area.

It was pointed out to us by a skipper that the beginning of the berth on the Surinamekade did not match the bollards on the quay.

Until recently, it was not possible to return your car to the car drop-off pont in the IJhaven after 11 am. Skippers found this very annoying and we received several reports about this.

From this week, Port of Antwerp-Bruges and Port of Amsterdam are offering Routescanner’s ‘Direct Connections’ on their websites. This service shows all available connections from the ports. Routescanner is the route planner for container shipping and shows not only the fastest container routes, but also the most sustainable.

Unfortunately, rubbish is too often placed next to containers. Therefore, Port of Amsterdam will hang a camera near the containers in Afrikahaven in March.

From now on, there we will an additional waiting place for coupled push barges. This waiting berth will be an extension of the current waiting berths along the Houthaven breakwater.
