USA vil investere milliarder i havne

Den amerikanske præsident Jo Biden har lanceret en plan til 17 milliarder dollar - svarende til 110 milliarder kroner - der skal forbedre og udbygge de amerikanske havne, såvel ved kysten som inde i landet, samt infrastrukturen bag havnene.

“Amerikas underudviklede havne og vandveje koster dyrt for vores familier, vores økonomi og vores globale konkurrenceevne”, siger Jo Biden.

Han henviste bl.a. til, at kun fire amerikanske havne er blandt de 50 mest travle havne i verden, og at ingen er med i Top-10.

De mange milliarder skal sammen med øget administrativ og planlægningsmæssig fleksibilitet, gøre det lettere at skaffe finansiering til udvidelses- og moderniseringsplaner i de amerikanske havne, og i infrastruktur der transporterer gods til havnene og videre fra havnene.

Lav vanddybde er også et problem i mange amerikanske havne, ligesom lave broer skaber hindringer for de stadig større skibe.
