North Sea volumes were below 2023 as higher volumes on the Swedish routes were offset by lower temperature controlled volumes, mainly food, between the Continent and the UK. Mediterranean volumes were also in June above 2023 driven by higher volumes on all routes.
Channel volumes continued in June to be above 2023 as did volumes on the Baltic Sea routes.
