Liverpool hits monthly record in October

[ November 21, 2019   //   ]

Peel Ports says that quayside and landside throughput in October at its Liverpool container terminals exceeded all previous figures on record, with year on year growth of 12%. It also managed to reduce the length of time trucks are spending at the port with the average turnaround time now consistently below 40 minutes, a UK leading service standard, it says.

Peel Ports recently entered into a joint venture agreement with global terminal business, Terminal Investment Limited to develop Liverpool2 container terminal and accelerate growth plans. Work has started on the second phase of the Liverpool2 project with the arrival of STS cranes expected before the end of the year. The overall project should be completed during 2021.
