answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/03/2019 answer text <p>The Department has assessed the potential impacts of changes in freight traffic and border processes on queues at Portsmouth International Port (PIP) in the event the UK leaves the EU without a deal. This assessment uses hourly freight traffic arrivals data into the port, therefore accounting for peaks and troughs in HGV arrivals over the week. Queuing from the port can currently happen during peak periods of normal operation. However, as a result of potential increased freight arrivals and limited throughput capacity at the freight entry to the port, we project that up to sixty HGVs could be queuing to enter the port at peak times in a worst case scenario. Although this would impact on the M275, we expect these queues to dissipate as arrival rates drop off beyond peak hours.</p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling grouped question UIN 234269 234271 question first answered 26/03/2019 13:56:48 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling
