Expect lots more from the French. They will do their utmost to make life as difficult as possible for our truckers after December. I sincerely hope Hauliers have thought about alternative routes, It would then soon get through to the Port of Calais officials that it doesn't bode well to bite the hand that feeds you.25-11-2020, 01:54 PM

There's also been an expansion in services and routes from these ports in preperation with (for example) more Hull & Immingham to Amsterdam & Rotterdam services introduced.
I see there are other new routes opened recently too, including Liverpool to Portugal and Spain & Teeside to Spain.
Calais could well see a reduction regardless, and as you say if they want to further bite the hand that feeds .........

We had seven freeports at one time and five in the UK up until 2012 when we let the domestic laws that set up those ports expire, probably as the result of them not being necessary because of our EU membership.
