As part of the project to improve maritime access, HAROPA PORT I ROUEN is leading an initiative to manage and recover dredged sediments resulting from the works.

The project to improve maritime access also involves adapting port infrastructure.

In order to allow large capacity bulk carriers to transit through Rouen, it is necessary to provide them with an additional metre of draught, thus allowing them to sail for almost all tides with 11.30 metres of draught when going down to the sea and for most tides with 11.70 metres on the way up to Rouen.

The Port of Rouen, whose port area extends from Honfleur to Rouen, welcomes ships carrying different types of goods: cereals, agri-food products, refined petroleum products, etc. The fleet of bulk transport vessels is being modernized and its carrying capacity increased.

Located 100km from the coast inland and close to the capital, the Port of Rouen was the premier French port for centuries. Today, it is one of the leading European ports. Thanks to this 360° virtual tour, come and discover the Port of Rouen today, which has managed to preserve its historical dynamism over the years.

Rouen Tourist Office offers mini-motor launch cruises open to all. Discover industrial tourism and the heritage of the Port of Rouen.

In its dual activity, the Port has an impact on local economic development, the organisation of territories and the living environment.
