New Antwerp EC depot
Two Antwerp port operators, DP World and Euroports (Manuport, Westerlund) have taken an option on a 10-hectare parcel of land alongside the Albert Canal in the future Beverdonk industrial zone near Grobbendonk, with a view to developing an empty container depot and, in a second stage, a barge terminal for full containers shipped over Antwerp. DP World and Euroports are already working together in the TriLogiport project in Liège.
The objective is to downstream EC depot activities from the deepsea terminals in Antwerp and at the same time relieve congestion on the E313 motorway, as empties could be shipped by barge. If the project develops as planned, warehousing could be added for CFS activities. The depot facilities would be open to all terminal operators.
