Member for Harbours, David Callister MLC, comments: “September figures are always likely to vary dependant for example on when schools go back and travel dates for returning MGP traffic. Whilst this year’s figures are 3.8% down on 2009 they are actually 6.0% up on 2008. UK traffic over the summer has remained similar to last year however traffic on the Irish routes increased every month throughout the summer period overall these are good results.” More stories >>>
