Member Alert: Operation Brock


It is anticipated that - ahead of the Christmas getaway - high volumes of tourists will travel via Eurotunnel and Port of Dover from this weekend, beginning on Friday 20th.   

Kent roads are expected to be very busy throughout the weekend of 20-22 December with high demand expected until Tuesday 24 December afternoon. To prepare for this, Operation Brock was deployed on Sunday 15 December. 

Specifically: 

  • If Operation Brock and Dover TAP is in operation, police and DVSA enforcement teams will be operating across Kent to ensure compliance.
  • HGVs travelling to Port of Dover will require a permit to access the Port. Permits will be issued at the front of the Operation Brock queue.
  • Please check the information provided by Eurotunnel and Port of Dover before you travel, and ensure you have supplies of food and water, particularly in cold weather.

Please find press releases from National Highways and Kent County Council here.
