Waterway transport enables smart transport routes

Published 12/10/2025

Large pipes, which will be used in a construction project, have arrived at Frihamnen Port in central Stockholm, from Finland. Taking them by water relieves both road and rail networks, while also being more cost-effective.

Frihamnen's central location offers customers excellent conditions for this type of logistics solution and is an attractive alternative for transport to and from the Stockholm region.

By using waterways and transporting the goods as close to the final destination as possible, both the road and rail networks are relieved, while the environmental impact is reduced. It is also more cost-effective.

The pipes that have arrived at Frihamnen Port are now being welded together by Sventab and will eventually be transported by barge to the Stockholm Water and Waste construction project in Nacka municipality. Shipping will begin at the end of February and be completed in March.
