“Two sides of the same coin”

06.09.2024

EMDEN. In May, Eric Oehlmann (6th from left), Head of Directorate-General of Waterways and Shipping, met with representatives of the local port industry at the invitation of the Emden Port Development Company. He made it clear: “In Emden, like hardly anywhere else, ecology and the economy come together directly as a result of the Ems Master Plan and the adjustment of the Outer Ems fairway. It turns out that these are two sides of the same coin.” At the same time, he indicated that the current planning process would soon be complete and implementation could then begin.
