Holyhead: An Post will not use storm-damaged port at Christmas

The closure of Holyhead port has also affected those travelling for Christmas with many posting about the matter on social media.

It comes at one of the busiest trading periods between Ireland and the UK, with passenger numbers expected to swell during the festive period.

It was previously hoped the port would be back open by 13 December.

Ger Hyland, president of the Irish Road Haulage Association, said earlier this week: “We’re really going to struggle to get goods delivered to both the high street and for internet shopping.

“It is my reckoning that it’s not going to be delivered in time.”

He dubbed the situation “disastrous” saying freight was “lying idle” at Holyhead and Dublin ports.
