Eurotunnel sees partial recovery

[ June 5, 2020   //   ]

Eurotunnel’s truck shuttle traffic was down 29% in March compared with the same month last year, at 90,300 vehicles, although it was up by 10,000 vehicles on the previous month, April, acording to data released by operator Getlink on 5 June. Eurotunnel’s truck traffic declined by a third in April 2020, to just under 80,000 vehicles. Whilst lockdown eased in France on 11 May, severe travel restrictions remain, and Eurotunnel continues to focus on ensuring the supply of critical goods between France and the UK. Getlink said that traffic held up in May mainly due to the resilience of demand for food, pharmaceuticals and e-commerce.
