There is a plan to establish a logistic center for oversize/overweight cargo at port Bronka (Big Port St. Petersburg), IAA PortNews correspondent cites Miroslav Russkikh, Head of Sales Department at Fenix (Bronka terminal investor), as saying at Heavy Russia conference in Moscow.
According to him, port Bronka is going to offer services on SKD assembling, storage, transport package and transshipment of cargo onto river transport.
In 2016, the port handled 25,000 t of oversize/overweight cargo.
The capacity of Bronka’s Phase 1 is 1.45 million TEUs and 260,000 units of Ro-Ro cargoes. In the future the MSCC Bronka expansion will help increase the facility's container throughput to 1.9 million TEUs. Upon completion of the port's construction and dredging MSCC Bronka will be able to accommodate Post-Panamax containerships and the ferries of Finnstar class. The Bronka Complex will comprise three specialized facilities: a container terminal encompassing 107 hectares, the Ro-Ro terminal of 57 ha and a logistics center of 42 ha. Container terminal will have a 1,220 m-long quay wall (including 5 berths). The length of Ro-Ro terminal's dock line will be 710 meters (3 berths).
