London Container Terminal (LCT) in Tilbury has secured a four year agreement with SCS Multiport to handle the newly upgraded ATS (Amsterdam Tilbury Service).
The upgrade comes on the back of long term commitments from a number of cargo owners reflecting the success of the service.
The three times a week shuttle between Amsterdam and Tilbury will see a 50% capacity upgrade with the arrival of the Pengalia a 700 TEU vessel scheduled to make her first call in London Container Terminal on the 8th April. The service will carry cargo including construction materials, bricks, cocoa, foodstuffs and animal foods.
Forth ports will be exhibiting at Multimodal this week from 4-6 April at the NEC in Birmingham on stand number 3010.
