Accessibility is essential for a well-functioning port. The new transport concept from Zuid-Holland Bereikbaar (Accessible South Holland) and the Port of Rotterdam Authority makes travelling to the port easier and more affordable. The initiative promotes sustainable mobility and helps reduce congestion, so that employees can get to work faster and more comfortably.

In 2025, digital innovation in the Port of Rotterdam shifted from exploration to real impact. What once started as pilots and prototypes has now evolved into concrete operational improvements, showing how data, technology, and collaboration can strengthen both performance and sustainability across the port.  

The Digital Report captures that shift well — the lessons learned, the improvements we’ve already seen and the opportunities still ahead of us.

The Port of Rotterdam Authority is developing a 45-hectare terminal in the northwest corner of the Maasvlakte, specifically for offshore wind activities. This location offers space for storage, transhipment, installation, and (pre-)assembly of wind turbine components and foundations. With direct nautical access to the sea, heavy-duty quays and high-quality logistics facilities, this will be a crucial link in the energy transition.
