Brittany Ferries is pleased that it has been selected to provide guaranteed freight capacity on three of its routes:
- Portsmouth – Caen
- Portsmouth – Le Havre
- Poole-Cherbourg
Brittany Ferries UK managing director John Napton says:
“Brittany Ferries is pleased that it has been selected to provide guaranteed freight capacity on three routes. We have the flexibility in both our fleet and route network to allow us to help UK government with the shipment of critical products like medicines in the event of a no-deal Brexit.
“In the last weeks, we have been working on a series of Brexit dry-runs, to ensure that freight keeps moving whatever framework we face on 31st October. These dry runs have involved ports on both sides of the channel, customs staff, border force and other partners. We are confident that we have made the necessary preparations for all our customers, including the Department for Transport, to ensure that freight keeps moving as seamlessly as possible.”
