Where the Øresund Bridge carries unaccompanied freight by road and rail toward Malmö, Helsingør keeps the older modal option alive: a short RoRo ferry shuttle to Helsingborg, three nautical miles across the strait. Trucks board roughly every 15 minutes, around 70 sailings a day in each direction, operated around the clock by carriers such as Scandlines and ForSea/Øresundslinjen. This is accompanied roll-on/roll-off traffic rather than container or bulk handling — the port pairs its ferry terminals with limited general-cargo and storage space and recreational moorings. Inland, the Danish coastal railway and the road network link it toward Copenhagen. For containerised or bulk consignments, Copenhagen-Malmö Port (CMP) and Aarhus are the appropriate gateways.
