Various processing issues, such as strikes at the Port of Hamburg have led to a significant backlog of Containers. As a result, a flow control has been implemented for the Hamburg Waltershof station.
This means that due to limited track availability, trains can be refused and parked on the route at any time before being transferred to the terminals for further processing.
We can not estimate, when these measures will end and when the operational process and transit times will be back to normal.
Currently, the delay for loading at Hamburg is in average +/- 24 hours, and it is expected to increase further.
Please expect indefinite delays for your transports.
Logistics providers cannot take any liability arising from such situation. As precaution potential storage, demurrage or detention charges should be considered.
Fr-8 is available to assist with alternative routings and professional guidance.
