UK-BASED independent freight and logistics company Davies Turner achieved in May a record transit of 18 days for its fixed-day,<\/p>\n
weekly rail import service for less-than-container load (LCL) cargoes from Wuhan, China to Dartford, UK.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Head of supply chain services Tony Cole said in a company statement: ‘Having reviewed the statistics for our Express China Rail import service<\/p>\n
for the first five months of 2019, the scheduled transit time from the Wuhan rail hub to our Dartford depot has been beaten on 16 out of 22 weeks.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
‘Whilst the scheduled transit time from the Wuhan rail hub to our Dartford depot is 22 to 24 days, we are regularly seeing transits of 19 or 20 days,<\/p>\n
and in May achieved a record transit of 18 days.’<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The express China rail service transports containers by rail from Wuhan direct to Duisburg in Germany. They are then trucked under bond to the port of Rotterdam<\/p>\n
and carried by ferry to Purfleet, near Dartford for on-carriage by truck to the company’s main distribution centre, where they are discharged, customs cleared and delivered.<\/p>\n
Mr Cole added: ‘The more direct method of moving the container from Wuhan to the UK that we introduced in November last year enabled us to offer lower rates to the market,<\/p>\n
and reduced the possibility of delays, as well as strengthening security.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
