Expansion of RWG in Rotterdam is Underway

Rotterdam World Gateway (RWG) has reached agreement with its shareholders DP World, CMACGM/Terminal Link, HMM and MOL and the Port of Rotterdam Authority regarding a phased expansion of the RWG terminal. In the first phase, an extra berth for the deep‐sea activities will be developed and, in addition to further capacity expansion, the focus will also be on future‐oriented facilities in which automation, sustainability and connectivity remain central. The total investment is approximately €500 million and initially includes civil works, quay cranes, storage modules with automatic stacking cranes and electrical automatic guided vehicles. The Port of Rotterdam Authority has already started construction of the quay in the Amaliahaven, which will be completed in 2024. The berth is expected to be operational at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025 with a commercial rollout in 2026.
