Rhine Navigation Restored in Germany
Ferries on the Rhine River have begun resuming their services after weeks of forced suspension due to low water levels caused by severe drought, particularly in Düsseldorf, where operations were halted for 29 days during July and August. Ferry operator Jens Jansen explained that the decline in water levels has negatively impacted revenue, as the service relies heavily on spring and summer seasons. The suspension affects passenger, car, and bike traffic, especially on weekends. Other ferries in the Lower Rhine, Cologne, and Bad Hönningen regions have also restarted after different periods of interruption, amid hints that weather conditions may continue to impact water transportation operations in the future.
