Cargo throughput through Hai Phong Port in the month reached 2,528 million tons,

container cargo reached 122,300 TEU In which, domestic container cargo tends to increase

slightly Export container goods and a number of non-container products decreased However,

the volume of cars exploited on RORO ships at Tan Vu Port Branch increased sharply,

reaching 5,800 vehicles (up 28.9% compared to the plan and 36.3% compared to June 2022)

The whole port welcomes and operates 148 ships, including 91 container ships

With flexible and creative solutions in market work, increasing cost savings, although

the output of goods only reached 97.6% of the plan, the revenue and profit targets of Hai

Phong Port All rooms increased higher than the plan and the results of the same period

Specifically, the target of consolidated revenue reached 161,704 billion VND (up 5.8%

compared to the plan, up 19.3% over the same period); Consolidated profit reached VND

42,563 billion (up 56.5% compared to the plan, up 31.9% over the same period)

The port welcomes a new service line of ZIM shipping company operating at Tan Vu

Port Branch connecting Shanghai - Ningbo - Haiphong - Xiamen - Shanghai, which is

expected to meet the increasing transportation demand of intra-Asia routes

In addition to developing new service routes, Hai Phong Port promotes

comprehensive digital transformation to create fast and sustainable development steps In

July, Hai Phong Port deployed the application of TOS container management system at Chua

Ve Port Branch and piloted the automatic container management system for import and export containers through Smartgate at Tan Vu Port Branch, through That improves the efficiency of container management and operation in a modern way and creates more conveniences and conveniences for customers when performing operations at the port

II Current situations of Northern container seaports

The seaport is the place to gather and distribute goods (to and from), so the traffic system behind the port plays a very important role The advantage of northern seaports is that it is a traffic hub with a diversified network of waterway, land and railway transport According to the assessment of the authorities, the volume of goods transported (to and from) seaports through the road transport system accounts for 70-80% of the total output This shows that special-use vehicles have continuously increased in recent years

3.1 Roadway

As of June 2022, out of 10 important and urgent road projects have been invested, upgraded, completed and put into operation, contributing to enhancing the capacity of road traffic network connectivity, specifically: : route connecting Hanoi-Hai Phong expressway with Cau Gie-Ninh Binh expressway; upgrade National Highway 14 connecting Ha Giang - Lao Cai; renovating and upgrading Highway 3B, section of Xuat Hoa - Po Ma border gate, Bac Kan Take Hai Phong City as an example- a strategic position in the transportation development of the entire northern region, gateway to the northern provinces, coastal defense

integrates various modes of transportation: roads, sea, aviation, railways, and inland waterways- out of the total of more than 68,000 cars in Hai Phong, semi-trailers account for more than 10%, about more than 7,000 vehicles, accounting for 4 of the total number of

these vehicles in the country

The road system leading to Haiphong Port mainly passes through three main highways, namely highway 5 and highway 10 After the completion and operation of highway 5B, the road system connecting the port and the northern economic zone is basically met, ensuring smooth transportation and not blocking the port However, these main roads have low quality and narrow lanes that only allow two lanes to pass at once In addition, more than 6000 frequently used large container vehicles have caused blockages in the road area entering the port, leading to rapid deterioration of the road The specially-classified seaport in this northern region is also facing a "“bottleneck" in terms of connecting transport

infrastructure Due to mainly road transport, the inner-city route Nguyen Van Linh (Hai Phong) is often congested due to excessive vehicle traffic Road transport infrastructure in the city connecting to the port is also incomplete Meanwhile, the fee for using the Hai Phong - Hanoi Expressway in the Dinh Vu - National Highway 10 section is high, so container trucks are limited on the expressway

3.2 Railway

The current railway network has created the connection of 4/6 regions, 34 provinces/cities, 3 lines on 2 main corridors, Hanoi - Ho Chi Minh City Ho Chi Minh City and Lao Cai-Hanoi-Hai Phong account for 78% of the network and 88% of freight traffic by rail Vietnam Railways also increases the connection between 2 seaports (Cai Lan, Hai Phong), 2 inland waterway ports (Viet Tri, Ninh Binh) and 1 Lao Cai dry port Currently, there are only 2 seaports with direct railway connections to Hai Phong port (Hoang Dieu

wharf area), Cai Lan port (Quang Ninh)

However, the railway branch to Hai Phong port is only the Hoang Dieu wharf area, which

is no longer the wharf area with the largest throughput volume (due to the relocation policy and the restriction of static space of Bach Dang bridge) At the same time, the railway has not yet reached the wharf The length of the consolidating operation path is also short and ineffective Dinh Vu and Chua Ve wharf area has a larger volume of goods through, but there

is no connecting railway (the connection option extends from Hai Phong port to Chua Ve,

Dinh Vu is not feasible due to space limitations and road intersections, and at the same time

not suitable for the spatial planning of the city) The volume of goods transported through the port by rail accounts for over 3%, the rest is carried by road

The exploitation capacity on most of the main railway lines is only about 17-25 pairs of trains/day and night, the average speed of passenger and freight trains is 50-70km/h (60km/h for freight trains) Most of the railway lines were built a long time ago, so they have low technical standards, with many limitations in terms of load and profile, so the train speed is low, reducing competition compared to other modes of transport other Thus, it can be said that rail transport has not yet promoted its advantages and has not become the main means of transporting goods to and from the port
