history
In the period from 1924 to 1928, the Mittelland Canal at Sehnde was built to the east and the Hildesheim canal to the south. The city harbor had a connection to the existing Lehrte – Nordstemmen railway line from the start and, despite the prevailing global economic crisis in the early 1930s, steadily gained more transshipment when the canal was Peine in the interwar period in 1929 , Braunschweig in 1933 and finally the Elbe in 1938 reached. Mainly potash, building materials, agricultural products, fertilizers as well as solid and liquid fuels were handled.
During the Second World War , the ports in Sehnde were largely ignored and operational.
In the 1960s, the transshipment points were modernized in the course of upgrading and upgrading the canal; in some cases their location and use also changed slightly.
The WSA and marina were added in the 1980s, and in the late 2000s the lock ports at Bolzum were finally completely rebuilt.
In May 2015 there was a fatal accident in the Sehnde marina and in January 2016 a horde of wild boars got into the canal near the Schneiderwinkel land.
Commerce and infrastructure
Today the ports of Sehndes consist of several locations, the facilities of which are specially adapted to the respective purposes and each have their own operators. At the port basin of the city port there are two crane systems, pumps, storage facilities for solid and liquid cargo, as well as a pipeline to the railway systems on the west quay. In addition, there are berths for commercial shipping at the border Sehnde-South, more waiting places on the canal branch to branch canal Hildesheim and a bunker station in the headwater of the Bolzum lock . The Braunschweig Waterways and Shipping Office has set up a branch in Sehnde for service and work boats and has built its own small port there.
traffic
Local roads open up all parts of the port to the federal motorway 7 , which runs about 5 km to the west . Public transport connections are available about one kilometer north of the city port at the Sehnde S-Bahn station.
There is a pull-out track for freight traffic to the western pier of the city port, so that trimodal traffic is possible in Sehnde .
