The Rijkswaterstaat, the Dutch Road and Water Infrastructure Agency responsible for managing traffic around port terminals, are completing the final phase of their Brexit preparations. Buffer parking areas have been created in Rotterdam and IJmuiden for trucks not ready to cross the border into the UK.
Preparations for the upcoming Brexit are particularly evident on the roads around Rotterdam and IJmuiden.
