Logistics UK Urges Northern Ireland to Develop a Dedicated Freight Strategy
Logistics UK is calling for the Northern Ireland Executive to create a dedicated, cross-departmental freight and logistics strategy. Policy manager Seamus Leheny made the appeal ahead of the UK General Election, highlighting the sector's vital role in the region's economy. The proposed strategy aims to address key challenges including decarbonisation, skills shortages, and necessary infrastructure improvements. Leheny emphasized that a formal plan is needed to leverage Northern Ireland's unique post-Brexit access to both UK and EU markets and to secure its supply chain for the future.
