We have worked closely with the Welsh Government to review the viability of the Holyhead-Dublin ferry route, and agree that capacity on this route continues to meet the levels of demand to keep goods moving.

We will continue to monitor the situation, as is the case on all freight routes, and will work with the Welsh Government should circumstances on the route change.
