STENA LINE will launch an additional ferry on its HolyheadDublin route on 11 September to cope with increasing freight traffic.
It has gone up by 7-8% a year between the UK and Ireland for the last three years, so a new vessel was needed," says a Stena Line spokesman.
Freight traffic passing through Holyhead has increased follow ing improved access along the A55.
The extra ferry is the Stena Seatrader, which previously worked on the North Sea route. It is currently being refitted, with £300,000 being spent on improved facilities for freight drivers.
The Seatrader will make daily round trips leaving Holyhead at 10.15pm and Dublin at 3.15pm.
