Bristol Port Co. reports new shipping service to the U.S.
Port operator The Bristol Port Co. has reported a new shipping service to the U.S. from the Royal Portbury Dock in the southwest of England. The route will be served by the roll-on, roll-off cargo vessel Theben, operated and owned by Scandinavian shipping company Wallenius Wilhelmsen. The Theben will carry heavy construction plant components as well as British-built vehicles including Jaguars, Land Rovers, Minis to ports on the U.S. East and West coasts. “We are the nearest major UK port to the U.S., and this is the first ship of a weekly service that reflects the booming car export business at Bristol Port. Last year the port handled nearly 200,000 vehicles for export and a 20 percent increase is predicted this year,” said David Brown, CEO at The Bristol Port Co.. http://www.breakbulk.com/bristol-port-launches-us-service/
