Port of Felixstowe and DFDS boost ro-ro capacity

The Port of Felixstowe and DFDS have agreed to increase roll-on roll-off capacity at the UK port by over 40% through investments in new infrastructure and parking facilities.

As part of the investments, terminal operator Hutchison Ports has planned to replace one of the existing ro-ro bridges with a floating linkspan which is capable of handling the latest generation of ro-ro vessels.

Additionally, for unaccompanied ro-ro traffic, Hutchison Ports has planned to create over 300 additional trailer spaces.
