It will be climate resilient and well protected against ?ooding. Furthermore,the Randstad in 2040 will benefit in full from Amsterdams metropolitan diversity and strength, and from the specific commanding international functions located in Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht.


PORT COOPERATION
PORT COOPERATION
The major Dutch seaports, mainport Rotterdam and, to a lesser extent, Amsterdam, occupy a central position in the international cargo network, contributing 30 billion euros (6.2 per cent) annually to GDP and providing work directly and indirectly to 240,000 people. Until 2040 international cargo flow is forecast to double, and container transport to quadruple. The aim is to utilize and add value to this strong position. Among other things, this would suggest more end-product manufacturing rather than only the transit of raw materials and semi-finished products. Indeed, end products have more added value. This strategy will create new opportunities for process industries to form clusters around the port.

In due course a joint international development strategy for the ports of Rotterdam and Amsterdam could contribute to greater efficiency and an even stronger international position, with favourable consequences for large-scale investments, the environment and the claim on space. From the point of view of efficient public expenditure, the government will promote the cooperation between the seaports of Rotterdam, Amsterdam, the Zeeland harbours and Moerdijk, and Antwerp. The assumption is that no third Maasvlakte or expansion in the North Sea Canal area will be needed before 2020.
