Ro-Ro Shipping SEMINAR Tuesday 23rd - Wednesday 24th February 2010 Amsterdam
With approximately 22% of tonnage of the current inter- European traffic coming through short sea shipping from the ports of Dover, Calais, Lubeck, Zeebrugge and Immingham using Ro-Pax ships and ferry services, there is certainly a growing need to assess whether the future lies with unaccompanied Ro-Ro and container services, or with Ro-Pax?
