CONTAINER--FEEDER SERVICE RIJEKA (PLOCE)--GIOIA TAURO (MALTA)

In recent years, the container feeder service has become an increasingly important element of containerization. The changes in container flows caused by political changes in Central Europe have resulted in a drain of a significant part of this transport from the Adriatic Sea to the northern European ports. The introduction of the container train from Budapest to Rijeka, for the needs of feeder service, would mean a significant step toward revitalization of the Rijeka transport route. With government support, Croatian sea-going ship operators will become an important factor in the development of containerization and feeder service, resulting in the return of container transport to the ports of Rijeka and Ploce.
