Inland shipping is experiencing considerable hindrance due to the low water levels, which means that fewer containers can be transported over a large part of the Rhine in Germany. The Rhine is the main route for the transport of goods from the ports of Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Antwerp to the industrial areas in western Germany and also to Switzerland. EPA/KOEN VAN WEEL
