Important Notice about Service in the Port of Helsingborg 19–26 June

These actions will affect operations at the Port of Helsingborg over the coming days. Below is a list of specific times when operations may be impacted.
Expected impact on operations:
- Centralgate will be closed to container traffic for the port’s operations when we need to concentrate on vessel operations.
- Limited staffing during this period may affect service levels, with the risk of queues.
- We are working to minimise disruption, but loading and unloading of container trucks in the port will be affected on the strike days.
- Terminal operations such as stuffing and stripping will be closed during the strike.
