UAE-based port operator DP World recently opened three new facilities in Romania.
The country's Black Sea port of Constanta is now home to two new facilities following a €65 million (US$71 million) investment: a five-hectares project cargo terminal for heavy, large and complex cargo, and a new Ro-Ro terminal that will handle up to 80,000 vehicles per year at its peak.
An additional €50 million (US$54 million) will be invested in a new multi-transport platform in Constanta that will open in 2025.
DP World's third new facility is in Aiud, in the industrial heartland of Romania, which is now home to a new eight-hectare intermodal logistics hub connecting rail and road, following a €21 million (US$23 million) investment.
The new facilities will improve the connectivity between DP World's existing sea, rail, barge, and truck services across Romania and will enhance the movement of goods between mainland Europe through to the Black, North, and Adriatic Seas.
DP World has invested over €250 million (US$270 million) in Romania since 2004, including grants from the European Union.
