Ireland\u2019s rail infrastructure is being renewed. \u200bConcrete \u200bs\u200bleepers, which are imported from Germany, are needed on a large scale for the track superstructure. Until March 2024, the iCargo Solutions division of Haeger & Schmidt Logistics (HSL) will organise the transport of 65,000 sleepers\u200b,\u200b sustainably by coastal trading vessel.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAs HSL, we are providing the entire logistics chain for this project from a single source, partly with our own assets. We are handling the transport sections by truck and coaster ourselves. The ships are provided by our joint venture HSW Logistics, a \u200bknown\u200b specialist for European short sea transports,\u201d emphasizes Markus Wirz, Project Manager of the iCargo Solutions Division.<\/p>\n

The logistics concept\u200b includes transporting the sleepers by truck from the manufacturing \u200b\u00a0 plant in Neuss to the defined transshipment point directly at the quay in the \u200bPort of \u200bAntwerp. More than 10,000 sleepers can be stored there until the volume for the planned sea transport is reached. In \u200bS\u200bhort \u200bS\u200bea \u200bT\u200bransport, the main leg of the journey goes through the Channel to the Irish port of Foynes in County Limerick\u200b, w\u200bhere\u200b \u200bIrish Rail calls off the components as needed.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Reliable transport time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u200b\u200bE\u200bxperienced \u200bP\u200broject \u200bM\u200banager\u200b,\u200b Wirz\u200b,\u200b accompanied the first of eight ship loadings on site in Antwerp. He was on board the H&S Honesty when the captain, Igor Filchakov, precisely loaded the first \u200bshipment\u200b of 7,840 sleepers onto his 2,500 t ship. The \u200bcaptain\u200b assured Wirz: \u201cOur transport time \u2013 under optimal weather conditions \u2013 is three days and four hours\u201d. In Wirz\u2019s view, it is precisely this exact advance planning that speaks in \u200bfavor\u200b of th\u200bis\u200b sustainable \u200bmode of \u200btransport\u200b\u200b: \u201cThe journey time and thus also the costs are much easier to calculate than with road transport\u200b \u200b\u201d \u200bsince t\u200bruck ferry connections, traffic jams and shortages of skilled workers can quickly lead to delays.<\/p>\n

In the current project, time is of the essence for Irish Rail. Its goal is to complete as many construction sites as possible by the \u200btime \u200bwinter\u200b comes around\u200b. To do so, it \u200bcounts\u200b on a reliable logistics chain of imports, because \u200bIrish \u200bnational manufacturing capacities are limited to 80,000 sleepers per year. The remaining demand is imported, \u200bmainly\u200b from Germany, which is known for its high quality standards. During production, the sleepers are adapted to the Irish track width of 1,600 mm.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

The iCargo Solutions division, which was only founded at the beginning of the year, sees itself well positioned for follow-up projects. Stefan H\u00fctten, HSL Chief Development Officer, explains: \u201cThis case study exemplifies the strength and focus of our division. We \u200bimplement\u200b holistic and sustainable logistics solutions from a single source for our customers with the inclusion of our growing network.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe island of Ireland has a public rail network of around 2,300 kilometers, operated by Irish Rail (Iarnr\u00f3d \u00c9ireann), the state-owned railway company of Ireland. Translink (Northern Ireland Railways) operates 357 km of the rail network in Northern Ireland. Rail transport in Ireland is operated on a 1,600 mm broad gauge. The majority of the rail network is single track\u200b with a\u200b maximum permitted speed on the rail network \u200bof\u200b 160 km\/h on certain lines and 145 km\/h on parts of the Northern Ireland network. For the first time, the Republic and Northern Ireland have jointly drawn up a \u20ac35 billion project to modernize the rail network on both sides of the border in the summer of 2023.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":5002,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5013","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-unkategorisiert"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nGREEN LOGISTICS FOR THE EMERALD ISLE -
