Port of Dover declares 'critical incident' after high levels of traffic and delays
The Port of Dover has declared a"critical incident" after drivers experienced lengthy delays due to significant levels of traffic ahead of the Easter getaway.
Ferry operators P&O Ferries and DFDS Seaways also reported delays to ferry and to coach services, citing bad weather and hold-ups at French border controls as partly responsible for the queues. The critical incident comes as thousands of passengers prepare to travel through the port during the holiday period.
A spokesperson said:"Our present high volumes, combined with extended processing at border controls, has resulted in lengthy delays for coach passengers."
