Transport¹:
| Comment on the transport infrastructure: | The infrastructure of the joint municipality of Lathen is excellently developed with the Autobahn 31, the federal highway 70, the main Münster-Emden railway line and the Dortmund-Ems Canal with the ports in Lathen and Fresenburg. The supra-regional road, rail and water network thus offers ideal conditions for a company location in Lathen. |
