Routes
Heavy transport Germany – Scandinavia
Ferries and bridges lead to Scandinavia. For heavy and out-of-gauge transport, ferry capacity, permits per country and, for Norway, customs determine the process – often for wind energy and industrial projects.
What matters
- Ferry or bridge
- Ferries have their own limits and need a booking for special dimensions.
- Permits
- Germany, where applicable Denmark, and the destination country.
- Norway
- Customs formalities in both directions.
- Long distances
- Multi-day journeys with parking areas.
