Lakeway Link’s services are scheduled to start in April, initially offering three weekly departures between Gdynia and Södertälje. The company intends to expand its services to include additional traffic to Västerås by 2026, following the reconstruction of the Södertälje locks.

The LAKEWAY EXPRESS, constructed in 1999, features an overall length of 153.5 metres and a carrying capacity of 1,624 lane metres or approximately 110 trailers.

“I’m extremely happy to announce that our anticipated service between Poland and Sweden is now launching in line with previous notifications. It is with high ambitions that we introduce this new service to the market, not only enabling efficient transportation but also reducing environmental impact by utilizing waterways.”, says Fredrik Hermansson, CEO Lakeway Link

By introducing a regular line service with fixed departures, featuring traditional ro-ro services for trailers and efficient handling of shipments, Lakeway Link offers a robust alternative or complement to road and rail transportation.

“Lakeway Link is ready to streamline and enhance the transport experience between Sweden and Poland with a reliable and environmentally competitive solution for our customers.”, says Hermansson.
