Dry bulk first half decline in Bilbao

First half traffic at the Spanish port of Bilbao decreased by 21%, which in part was down to the suspension until June of all activities at the ArcelorMittal production plant in Sestao. The port authority remains optimistic that this situation can be reversed over the next six months, although points to improvements in other areas such as general cargo, rather than to a reactivation of dry bulk traffic per se.
