<p>Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Eurotunnel must commit expenditure
on the fixed link and the immediate surrounding environment, including Dollands Moor
rail freight yard. Eurotunnel has flexibility to determine which specific projects
to invest in, providing those projects comply with the obligations the Government
published on 5 March, and may invest in both rail and road freight resilience. The
details have been posted online here:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/eurotunnel-obligations-under-government-settlement-agreement/eurotunnel-obligations-under-government-settlement-agreement"

</p><p>A number of cross-Government working groups have been established to consider
the impacts on imports into the UK after EU Exit, including steering groups with rail
freight operators and terminal operators to support resilience. We have been in ongoing
dialogue with these stakeholders throughout our EU Exit planning to assist their preparations.</p><p>
