Truck manufacturer opts for river and road
35 Schwarzmüller trailers from the Dunaharaszti plant in Hungary have arrived at the port of Passau (Bavaria, Germany) for the first time by ship. The pilot test is now to be followed by regular shipments, Schwarzmüller said.
The new plateau vehicles covered some 575 km on the Danube. They were transported by truck from the Dunaharaszti plant for the port of Budapest and then loaded onto the special Bulgarian ship, which is more than 100 m long.
The transport is done "roll on, roll off", whereby the cargo is driven onto the deck and not lifted like a container. From the port of Passau, the trailers are trucked to their final destinations in Austria and southern Germany. (ben)
