Port and terminal access conditions at Europe’s major
container ports are highly diversified and pose a
continuous challenge to all parties involved (1/3)
Major Container Ports

Hamburg

Bremerhaven
Regulatory aspects

Port/ terminal access fees apply to both ports
but depend on a multitude of parameters

Terminals decide on slot requests by RUs
(Railway Undertakings) and allocate them
accordingly

In case of timetable adaptations slots have to be
re-requested and re-allocated

There are no additional access fees apart from
the existing paths charges and possible fees for
parked wagons

Terminals decide on slot requests by RUs

Slot adaptations during the timetable period
depend on the capacity utilization in terminals

Port and terminal access conditions at Europe’s major
container ports are highly diversified and pose a
continuous challenge to all parties involved (2/3)
Major Container Ports

Felixstowe

Southampton
Regulatory aspects

A lifting charge applies to both ports in order to
load/ unload trains (no additional access fees)

In Felixstowe the slot allocation is done by tender
process (currently all slots are full)

In Southampton both terminals are operated by
RUs with currently no available slots for any 3rd
party

Port/ terminal access fees apply to all ports in
Spain

Spanish ports heavily depend on the Spanish
Railway Infrastructure Company (ADIF) personnel
due to safety regulations for the ports’
infrastructure

Some safety regulations even require RUs to use
ADIF’s own shunting locos, which increases the
operating costs for RUs

Slot capacities are currently not fully utilized

The point of view of a Railway Undertaking…
European infrastructure policy for ports…

…should ensure transparent and fair access to all ports and terminals

…should ensure a fair and equally facilitated competition between
transport modes (avoid one-sided burden on RUs in terms of port
access fees)

…should ensure further development and investments into railway
infrastructure both inside and outside the port areas

…should establish good and sustainable connections between ports
and the hinterland transport system
