Driven by world-class seaports, a centrally located airport and an extensive network of roads, rail and inland waterway infrastructure, the Netherlands is a major hub for international logistics. The Netherlands is among the top 10 countries with the highest value of imported and exported goods. In total, almost 1,800 million tonnes per year are transported to and from the Netherlands. A major part of these flows can be considered as hinterland and international continental freight (HCF, for short) flows, using road, inland shipping and rail as transport mode. Including hinterland transport to and from locations in the Netherlands, HCF transport accounts for about 62% of all tonnes shipped within the Dutch borders, illustrating the major role of HCF transport. |
