TRIESTE –<\/strong> The intermodal network of G.T.S. (General Transport Service)<\/a> is expanding with the start-up of the new Padua\u2013Zeebrugge rail route<\/strong>, operating in both directions.<\/p>\n

The connection is designed to meet international market demand and strengthen the logistics axis between Italy and Belgium. The service links North-East Italy with the Port of Zeebrugge, one of Northern Europe\u2019s main gateways, and is based at the Interporto Padova<\/a> terminal.<\/p>\n

Operations are set to begin in mid-January. The first southbound departure from Zeebrugge to Italy is scheduled for 15 January, while the first northbound departure from Italy to Belgium will leave on 18 January.<\/strong> In the initial phase, three weekly rotations are planned, increasing to five rotations per week in the second quarter of 2026.<\/strong>
\nThe service accepts all loading profiles, with the sole exclusion of the SR\/P400 standard<\/strong>. It also includes direct handling of UK customs operations at the Padua terminal<\/strong>, strengthening the efficiency of the intermodal chain and reducing operating times for traffic to and from the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
