The new boat will primarily serve customers in eastern Berlin, shortening delivery times. DHL hopes that through waterway transport, it can improve efficiency while alleviating urban traffic pressure. The new vessel is expected to make multiple daily round trips between the main docks and the East Port, handling parcels.
