Rail operations across key intermodal routes in Italy are expected to face significant disruptions over the summer months due to scheduled maintenance and construction work. Meanwhile, in Germany, operators are bracing themselves for rail disruptions in July, affecting both freight transport and access to key ports.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>In Italy, disruptions will affect rail freight services to and from major ports, particularly Genoa, La Spezia, and Livorno, on the north-west coast, resulting in reduced capacity, rerouted trains, and complete suspensions on certain lines, Kuehne+Nagel informed customers in a service update.<\/p>\n

According to local operators, the complete closure of the Bologna-Padova railway line, in northern Italy, scheduled for 7-9 June, will limit freight operations.<\/p>\n

From 1 June to 20 July and from 30 August to 28 September, the Milan\u2013Genoa line will be reduced to a single track. Trains to and from all of Genoa\u2019s ports will be limited to daytime operations only, resulting in reduced freight capacity.<\/p>\n

The rail line between Milan and Trieste, another major Italian port on the northern Adriatic coast, will be fully suspended on certain days in July and August.<\/p>\n
