have cost the industry over £10m so far with the final figure likely to be substantially higher. This represents delays, lost loads and additional driver costs. Not factored in is the cost of re-routeing vehicles to other ports. Geoff Dossetter external affairs director at the FTA, says: The FTA is disappointed and angry that the Port of Calais seems to have no sense of urgency in dealing with these problems. "Every day that goes by costs the international transport industry more time and money and not surprisingly everyone is becoming increasingly frustrated by the Port of Calais's failure to provide an adequate service."
The FTA and Road Haulage Association are due to meet with Kent Police and officials from the Government Office for the South-East this Thursday to discuss the continuation of Operation Stack.
