WARNING: Expect Short Straits disruption over Christmas period


This week Logistics UK received some communication from the Department for Transport concerning potential Short Straits disruption in the run-up to Christmas. It is anticipating that it will be “very busy at the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel, which is likely to impact those crossing the Channel”.

Anyone travelling through the Port of Dover or Eurotunnel is advised to plan their journeys, check with the travel operator before setting out and follow their operator’s guidance on when to check in. 

Travellers should not only allow more time for journeys, but should be prepared for delays, with easy access to snacks, water and any essential medication while waiting in queues.  

Passengers should also make sure to have all their documents open on ID pages when arriving at border controls.
