DFDS terminates the ShortBridge service

DFDS Seaways has decided to close down their ShortBridge service running from Massvlakte (Rotterdam) to Immingham. The service from Rotterdam will instead switch to the Vlaardingen terminal, which became part of the DFDS network after the purchase of Norfolkline. The two ro-ro units on the ShortBridge service, Tor Finlandia and Tor Botnia, will move to other DFDS routes. DFDS Lisco, Klaipeda, owns the vessels. The ShortBridge service was inaugurated in 1973 by Tor Line, which was taken over by DFDS in 1982. The last sailing on the ShortBridge service will take place on December 24.
