APM Terminals’ Rotterdam facility has resumed operations following a temporary closure caused by extreme heat conditions. However, the terminal’s Chief Operating Officer has cautioned that forecasted high temperatures over the coming days are likely to keep landside operations under significant pressure.
The disruption highlights the growing challenges that extreme weather events pose to global port operations and supply chains. As temperatures continue to rise across Europe, terminal operators are increasingly required to balance operational continuity with the safety and welfare of their workforce.
