Europe closes borders to UK - is fresh produce still moving?
This weekend, an increasing number of European countries banned travellers entering from the United Kingdom. On Sunday ferries were also stopped for passengers and the Eurotunnel closed for 48 hours. The move was made after the UK recorded 35,928 new cases of Corona virus on Sunday, more than double that recorded seven days previously, this is said to be due to a mutated variant of the virus has arisen which and is said to be up to 70% more contagious.
Only un-manned trailers are permitted on the Dover to Calais ferry, from Calais drivers are permitted but the question is if they will be able to return.
