In May 2022, Le Shuttle Freight transported 137,313 trucks, an increase of 22% compared to May 2021. Since 1 January, more than 641,000 trucks have crossed the Channel aboard the Shuttles.

In April 2022, Le Shuttle Freight transported 128,980 trucks, an increase of 14% compared to April 2021, driven by the suspension of P&O services between 17 March and 26 April 2022. Since 1 January nearly 504,000 trucks have crossed the Channel aboard the Shuttles.

As part of our maintenance schedule for 2022, an upgrade of our engineering systems that enables the control and management of our fixed equipment in the tunnels has been planned overnight from Saturday 19th to Sunday 2th March.

In January 2022, Le Shuttle transported 66,875 passenger vehicles, an increase of 44%. Even if the activity benefited from the lifting of some travel constraints compared to 2021, it remains impacted by the pandemic.

In line with our ongoing commitment to enhance our services, we are pleased to announce our new partnership with TIP Trailer Services, now situated at Le Truck Village in Coquelles.

A huge amount of trade between the UK and the EU is carried through the channel tunnel - 25% of it, in fact. Now, that’s a huge responsibility in and of itself, but our responsibilities span outside of economic and cultural impacts; Eurotunnel and GetLink group recognises the need to be green in all that we do.

We are pleased to be participating at Multimodal 2021 where our Freight Commercial teams will welcome you from Tuesday 19th to Thursday 21st October at the NEC in Birmingham on stand 6065 (Norlink Ports).
