Due To A Lack Of Cross-Channel Ferries, There Are Long Lines At Dover

Long lines caused by disruptions to cross-Channel ferry services have caused delays of more than six hours for motorists nearing Dover.

The cause has been attributed to bad weather and a lack of ferries.

The suspension of P&O services had already impacted capacity at the Port of Dover.

People were being "handled like animals" with little or no support, according to lorry driver Stuart Orme, who has been stuck for several hours.

"Operators have been working hard all day to process the traffic and get travellers on their way as quickly as possible," a representative for the Port of Dover said.

Tourist traffic continues to flow through the port, and while local traffic congestion is lessening, it remains congested."

The Kent Resilience Forum, a partner organization planning for emergencies in Kent and Medway, reported that "impatient" lorry drivers were producing a backlog in the town by attempting to circumvent the Dover TAP and Operation Brock traffic management systems.

A portion of the M20 is being used to park vehicles, causing considerable delays, while the motorway remains blocked to all traffic except freight between junctions eight and nine as part of Operation Brock.

According to the Department of Transportation, efforts are being made to reduce disturbance.
