DP World opened a new vertical cargo quay in the port of Novi Sad

On Friday, the company DP World opened a vertical cargo quay, 186 meters long, in the Port of Novi Sad, in which it invested eight million euros.

That quay, as pointed out, will increase the terminal’s productivity by half a million tons and strengthen the terminal’s position as one of the most important ports on the trade route from Germany to Montenegro.

The quay is part of a port improvement project in which DP World has invested a total of 30 million euros, and consists of several expansion and adaptation projects, including a new quay, the procurement of new equipment, a grain silo with a capacity of 20,000 cubic meters and the reconstruction of the passenger terminal, which hosted more than 15,000 tourists visiting Serbia.

That company emphasized its goal to make the Port of Novi Sad the first green port on the Danube by using green energy obtained from renewable sources to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

“Safe and fast transport along the Danube to our port of Constanta in Romania on the Black Sea puts us at the forefront of transport and logistics business in Serbia, and this new investment project will further strengthen our position as a leading port on the Danube,” said the General Director of the DP World Claudio Negreanu.

He added that the multimodal terminal is used to ensure that food from the fields of Vojvodina reaches every corner of the planet. “The Port of Novi Sad is the gateway to the world market for all grain producers,” said Negreanu.

The Minister of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure of Serbia, Goran Vesić, pointed out that the ministry’s priority is investing in rivers, above all in the Danube, Sava and Tisza, and that this investment is important for the development of river traffic in Novi Sad.

“DP World has an obligation to invest 30 million euros in port infrastructure and superinfrastructure, so far the company has already invested 15 million, because they recognized that the state has a vision to develop Novi Sad, a city that will be connected to other parts of the country with three auto- times. “What is happening is just an additional stone in the mosaic that turns Novi Sad into a real ‘hub’ when it comes to the traffic of goods and passengers,” said Vesić.
