In the week of 22 February, the Port Community System was interrupted on several occasions. We would like to offer our sincere apologies in the event that you were inconvenienced in any way.
A special team has now been established within Portbase in order to track down the cause of the malfunction and to find a structural solution. In addition, together with the container terminals, we are considering alternative solutions to ensure that – should the operation of the Port Community System be unexpectedly interrupted or delayed – the drop off and pick up of containers will still continue as smoothly as possible. As a general rule: the earlier you pre-notify your containers, the better.
Consultation with TLN
On 15 March, Portbase will be conducting talks with “Transport en Logistiek Nederland” (TLN) and a delegation of road hauliers. Pre-notification is a key topic on the agenda for this consultation. If you personally experience any bottlenecks in the pre-notification process, please report them to TLN via e-mail wvdheuvel@tln.nl, and be sure to c/c alliantie@tln.nl. These reported issues will be discussed in the course of the meeting.
