GROW IN G delays in Customs clearance of inwards TIR traffic at Southampton and Felixstowe, of up to five days in some cases, have been causing considerable inconvenience to hauliers. One cause is the great increase in roll-on traffic.
Hauliers are, as a result, sometimes unable to return discharged carnets to the RHA in time, and a back-log of outstanding carnets has built up.
Late last month the RHA referred the matter to the head office of the Customs authorities in London.
