CLdN to increase capacity on Liverpool-Dublin route by 25%

Ro-roCLdN has announced a 25% capacity increase on its Liverpool – Dublin service. The increase will be achieved through the deployment of larger four-deck con-ro vessels with a capacity of 3.700 lane metres. The change to higher capacity vessels will also provide environmental benefits as the use of these larger ships will reduce customers’ CO2 emissions per tonne of transported cargo by up to 50%.

The new, scalable schedule comprises 24 return sailings per week and will operate between CLdN’s recently refurbished Brocklebank Dock terminal in the Port of Liverpool and the Port of Dublin. The service plays an essential role in transporting freight between Great Britain and the Republic of Ireland, with CLdN carrying more than 200.000 freight units on the route every year.

Commenting on the increased capacity, Gary Walker, Chief Operating Officer of CLdN’s shipping operations said: “This capacity increase shows the benefits that CLdN’s fleet capabilities can bring to customers. Not only are we able to increase the space available for cargo, but we are also enabling further reductions in the environmental footprint of each journey. The capacity increase is a direct benefit of the recently completed expansion and refurbishment of our Liverpool terminal. We now have more than 900 trailer bays as well as enhanced drop-off and pick-up facilities for our customers.”
