About UK Ports and Congestion
Four nations make up the United Kingdom: England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. The UK is home to some of the most effective ports in the world. 95 percent of products imported and exported through the UK are transported by ships. The port situation in the UK serves as the country's gateway, moving over 500 million tons of freight while producing £23 billion in corporate revenue, £8 billion in gross value added, and over 100,000 job opportunities.
While port congestion affects container ports all over the world, from China to the US to Europe. Ports in the UK that handle big amounts of containers are coping with BREXIT-related issues as well as spillover impacts from this congestion. At some ports and terminals, the peak has passed, but there is still a lot of port congestion in the UK. Ports are attempting to reduce the backlog round-the-clock. Although volumes are anticipated to be high for several months, the sector has written to the Secretary of State for Transport to reassure him that business will solve UK port congestion. Even though there are several strategies in place to address this, GoComet's Port Congestion UK Report is a tool to assist you in visualizing delays more clearly and preparing to manage exceptions beforehand.
