Fra 1. januar 2022, vil Stena Lines fragtrute fra Europoort (Rotterdam) sejle til Immingham i stedet for Killingholme. Årsagen er at mængden af trailere på ruten er vokset så meget at der ikke længere er plads i Killingholme, og der ikke er mulighed for at udvide i Killingholme. De to havne som begge ejes af Associated British Ports, ligger med få kilometers afstand fra hinanden på floden Humber. Ruten bliver i dag betjent af de to chartrede RoRo færger HATCHE og POL MARIS.
“We are delighted to welcome Stena to the growing list of customers choosing to benefit from the range of services and infrastructure the Port of Immingham offers for moving trade in and out of the UK. Over the last year, we have seen the Container Terminal in the Port of Immingham expand rapidly with six new destinations from three new customers calling regularly at the Port, and Stena’s decision is a further boost to the strong roll-on-roll-off business at the port.”
Simon Bird, Associated British Ports Humber Director.
