Le HavreÆs TEUs flat in 2006
The French port of Le Havre handled 2.13 million TEUs in 2006, a small 0.5 percent increase over 2005.
The port said transshipped tonnage was down 5.1 percent thanks to upgrading work on one of the gates of the Fran'ois I lock, which limited the crossing of container vessels during the first three quarters of the year.
The port handled a total of 75 million tons of cargo in 2006, roughly the same as the year before.
