The construction of a new CargoBeamer terminal in Kaldenkirchen, near the German border with the Netherlands, is entering a new phase now that all tenders have been put out. Interested parties have until 13 November 2025 to submit their proposals, with work expected to start early 2026.
The last tenders were divided into three lots, CargoBeamer explained on LinkedIn. Buildings and terminal equipment, traffic routes and cable civil engineering, drainage, and noise protection wall and, finally, energy supply.
The company announced the construction of the terminal in Kaldenkirchen last summer, labelling it as one of the most advanced intermodal transshipment facilities in Europe. Expectations are quite high, with over 200,000 semi-trailers planned to be shifted from road to rail every year.
