DP World takes over Trilogiport development at Belgium's Liege port
DP World has acquired all of Euroports' shares in a planned Liege Port container terminal in Belgium, also known as Trilogiport, and has said it will be responsible for the terminal's development.
Trilogiport, which is yet to be built, is a project that is part of the Marshall Plan of the Walloon Government, and a key part of the plan to develop Liege as a logistics hub.
"DP World supports our strategy to connect Antwerp and Rotterdam to Germany, the Netherlands and France via Liege," said Louis Bertrand, director-general of the Liege Port Authority.
The project is scheduled for completion in 2015. Liege Port itself will invest in the construction of the platform and a bridge linking the site directly to the motorway.
WDP and D.L. Trilogiport Deutschland, leading companies in logistics real estate, will develop a logistics park adjacent to the terminal.
