The water level in the Rhine River has again fallen to a record low, forcing a shift of cargo transport to land. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Reuters.
The Rhine is one of Europe's most important waterways, playing a crucial role in transporting industrial goods, including coal and chemical products. The drop in water levels has restricted shipping and increased logistics costs.
As a result, many companies are switching to rail and road transport for their goods. This is adding further pressure on supply chains in the region.
