Bradshaw Address: UK modal shift port incentives should be extended, says Rail Minister

There is a pioneering scheme at the Port of Southampton, encouraging intermodal logistics customers to switch their loads from road to rail. That scheme should be rolled out across the UK. Rail minister Huw Merriman wants that if the ruling Conservative Party is returned to power in the forthcoming general election. That was a key takeaway from his side of the George Bradshaw Address in London on Tuesday, 20 February.
