CALAIS PORT 2015, the proposed extension to the port, provides for the creation of a new dock north of the current port that will be capable of berthing the future generations of ferries and roll-on/roll-off vessels, and ensuring the traffic flows forecast for the 2020 / 2025 timeline under optimum conditions of security, safety and fluidity.
The railway sidings for the quayage in the East Port will be operational in June 2011. From that date onwards, trains will be able to offload new vehicles direct from the production sites on to the quayside. The sidings have been designed to handle combined transport, and will be the first link in the CALAIS PORT 2015 terminal for intermodal transport.
