383 ships have been served in Riga port in July of 2010. Larger number of ships entered Riga port only back in August of 2007 (396 ships), as well as in April (386 ships) and May (402 ships) of 2005.

On average 329 ships entered the port each month in 2009, but the average result will definitely be better this year, because systematic increase of the number of served ships is observed since February. For example, 349 and 357 ships entered the port in May and June respectively.

Increase of the number of served ships is related with active operation of the container lines as well as with revival of the timber market, and the volumes of conveyances on bulk cargo ships are also increasing.
