Transbo-Express shuttle enhanced for Ocean 3 cargo
The Nord Port Shuttle (NPS) barge service that runs between the Port of Dunkerque’s Flanders container terminal and the inland port terminals of Lille (LCT) and Dourges (LDCT), has been upgraded to offer a rapid transhipment of boxes delivered on the Ocean 3 Alliance mother-ships.
Containers will be reloaded directly onto the NPS barge as soon as the OCEAN 3 vessels complete their commercial operations at the Flanders Terminal, allowing the barge to depart for Dourges and Lille only hours after the containers arrive from Asia.
