The Port of Marseilles Authority is transferring two panamax gantry cranes from Fos container terminal to handle growing box traffic at the adjacent Brule-Tabac terminal. The extra equipment will allow Brule-Tabac to grow its traditional multi-purpose ro-ro activity whilst also enabling the acceptance of small container carriers and river barges previously handled at Fos. Containerised river traffic through the port rose 63% last year.
