[ February 23, 2023   //   Chris Lewis ]

ABP Humber has completed an extension to its Humber Container Terminal at the Port of Hull. The £4.8m investment of adds another 17,600sq m of heavy-duty paving to storage capacity at the terminal which handles around 12 vessels per week from Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Ghent operated by Samskip, iMotion and BGF.

ABP director Humber, Simon Bird, Director said: “ABP Humber has made substantial investments in the Humber Container Terminal at the Ports of Hull and Immingham. Having completed a £50 million investment at the start of 2021, the Humber’s provision to serve the container sector goes from strength to strength with these ongoing investments. The extra space and equipment is further evidence of the growing value the terminals have in the economic life of the North of England and the Midlands.”

Attenuation tanks have been incorporated into the drainage design to avoid overloading the downstream drainage system during stormy weather.

The Hull Container Terminal has also gained a new gatehouse that better serves the operations team.
