Snow & Ice – Logistics Running But Slowly

With overnight snow hitting many parts of the UK, travel conditions are impacted and while logistics will be running, some consignments will be moving more slowly than usual.

Air
Snow and freezing fog led to both London Gatwick and Stansted closing their runways last night, with Heathrow and Manchester airports cancelling many flights. Therefore, air freight shipments inbound and outbound may have delays.

Road
Many drivers were stuck on the M25 overnight and ongoing traffic alerts and weather warnings throughout the UK mean that collections and deliveries may be affected, which could also impact inbound and outbound road freight movements.

Ocean
Traffic will undoubtedly impact some ocean freight transport, and operations will inevitably be slow at some ports today.
