Channel Tunnel freight traffic sets new records


Eurotunnel’s Le Shuttle Freight business set a new all-time record with over 1.693 million trucks travelling via the Channel Tunnel in 2018, 3% more than in 2017.

 

Le Shuttle Freight confirmed its position as market leader with a 40.9% market share over the year, a gain of 1.8 points vis-a-vis 2017. The truck shuttle service largely outperformed a market contraction of 1.1%. Cross-Channel railfreight rose by 3% in 2018, according to the latest figures.

 

Eurotunnel’s 2018 revenue increased by 5% to EUR 958.4 million. Revenue from shuttle services climbed by 6% to EUR 636.4 million and revenue from the railway network increased by 5%, thanks to the good levels of Eurostar traffic, among other factors. (ben)
