Holyhead parcel backlog: An Post says 16,000 parcels still to be delivered as additional air freight capacity secured
Briefly

The recent closure of Holyhead Port due to Storm Darragh has caused significant delivery backlogs, leading An Post to utilize air freight and additional shipping options to manage the crisis.
An Post stated, 'All parcels received into An Post hubs are being processed and delivered immediately,' emphasizing their commitment to meet delivery promises amidst challenging conditions.
To facilitate freight movement, the Department of Transport introduced a temporary relaxation of drivers' hours for a 14-day period, mirroring measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In an effort to manage the surge in parcel volumes, An Post has increased staffing and upgraded technology at its hubs, ensuring efficient processing and delivery during the busy holiday period.
