As of September this year, the container ships Arnarfell and Helgafell will call at the Swedish seaport on a weekly basis, bringing fish and seafood while taking food products, construction materials, and vehicles to the Icelandic market.
The ferry, until the end of April 2026 serving the terminated Grenaa-Halmstad service of Stena Line, will now ply between Långnäs and Naantali in the colours of Eckerö Link.
Lakeway Link, a Wallenius Lines-Greencarrier JV, will stop sailing between the two seaports from 15 May this year at the latest, citing the 2026-to-2028 postponement of reconstructing the Södertälje lock as the culprit.
In a deal worth SEK684 million (€62.6m), the Swedish seaport has bought from Platzer land, office properties, and water areas, altogether enabling the development of 210,000 m² of new terminal space.
