Port truck parking with fast chargers
In addition to the Goordijk truck parking area (210 spaces) on the right bank of the Scheldt, Port of Antwerp-Bruges has now opened Ketenis, a new free parking area on the left bank of the Scheldt with 280 parking spaces.
The EUR 10 million truck parking is fenced, lit, and equipped with camera surveillance, wi-fi and sanitary facilities. Snacks and drinks are available from vending machines.
The new site is close to the current and future container terminals on the left bank of the Scheldt. Trucks may therefore also use it as daytime waiting area for trucks that are too early for their appointment at the terminal. The port authority is planning to install fast chargers (300 kW) for electric trucks at Ketenis in the near future. (ben)
