During 2019 we have seen a number of our sites surpass the volume received by rail versus 2018. These include Leeds (20%), Warrington (7%), Attercliffe (8%) and the new depot at Luton which already has received over 150kt since April this year. This has been achieved by the close collaboration between our Materials and Supply Chain teams and the reliable performance of our rail freight providers.

Dave Hart commented: “It’s great to be able to see this modal shift which reduces the number of vehicle movements and is in line with our strategy of being a sustainable operator. Congratulations to everyone involved.”
