The major
investments at the Port of Rotterdam reportedly included expanding container
terminals in Prinses Amaliahaven, building the CO2 transport and storage
project Porthos, widening the Yangtzekanaal, and developing the Portlantis port
experience centre.
The port stressed its commitment to construct
a future-proof port in
conjunction with its environment, while connecting the city with the port.
In the past year,
new partnerships have been formed with local entities, including the Rotterdam
Philharmonic Orchestra. Furthermore, a pilot programme offering port
consultation hours for residents has been introduced at various neighbourhood
hubs. Container
volumes at the port in 2024 increased for the first time in three years, with
consumer goods and food products as the main growth drivers.
