This 50% jump in service frequency is going to allow a total of 90 daily truck shuttles, 29 passenger shuttles and number of regular freight train deliveries and 44 Eurostar crossings.
A second stretch of channel tunnel is also being worked upon which would add a second 17 kilometre stretch of tunnel that would increase transport capacity.
Two days following the fire on 13th September, the Channel Tunnel services were completely disrupted with priority at that time being given to passengers who had made early reservations.
Eurostar runs its services from its London St Pancras base along with its stations at Ashford in Kent and Ebbsfleet with daily trips that operate to European destinations from Lille to Bruges and Paris.
