Access to the port of Antwerp in Belgium is provided through locks connecting the river with the docks. The decision to build a container quay on the river, outside the port, will hinder through traffic. A simulation model is built to investigate the hindrance of the river quay. Detailed modelling of maritime traffic on the river, including navigation logic, tides and lock planning, are included. Simulation experiments are run based both on current real-life measurements and on traffic forecasts. The model is built and implemented in such a way that it is reusable and extendible for future decisions on infrastructure improvements or maintenance projects.
