Abstract

This paper discusses the spatial dynamics in the Le Havre - Hamburg range. By applying existing spatial models on port system development, changes in the range’s port hierarchy are discussed. It is demonstrated that the existing port hierarchy in the range is unlikely to be structurally challenged in the foreseeable future and that port authorities and market players are designing strategies in view of better meeting the market requirements in terms of port services provision, logistics integration and hinterland penetration.
