The Franco-British border faces unique challenges with the new biometric passport checks, differing significantly between transport operators, with Le Shuttle optimistic while Dover anticipates issues.
Le Shuttle's CEO believes checks will be efficient, citing their capability of processing 750 vehicles per hour, suggesting minimal disruption given current operational rates.
In contrast, the Port of Dover's operators describe the situation as a 'nightmare waiting to happen,' indicating a stark disparity in readiness for the EES implementation.
John Keefe of GetLink reassures that Le Shuttle can maintain current speeds despite new checks but acknowledges individual vehicle processing will require additional time.
