LTM 1650-8.1: Not tired in Müden

The Moselle, with a length of 544 km the second longest tributary of the Rhine, plays a decisive role as an international waterway. 28 barrages enable inland waterway vessels to make smooth progress. However, the failure of a lock, as in December 2024, represents a significant disruption to inland traffic. In order to act quickly and efficiently in this critical situation, the Mosel-Saar-Lahn Waterways and Shipping Authority (WSA) has had a framework agreement with the Trier-based crane rental expert Steil for years. Thanks to this cooperation and state-of-the-art Liebherr technology, the damaged gate could be salvaged and a new one installed. In the meantime, a Liebherr mobile crane played the main role in the emergency lock-out of 74 ships stuck on the Moselle.
