There is also a major shortage of Class1 Drivers too, my guess is a large proportion were agency Drivers and they were
laid off or made redundant when the Pandemic arrived.

Its also noted that many importers panic bought and doubled their orders from their foreign suppliers, the problem erose
because some importers did not have the Warehousing Capacity and abused the Dumerage at the Dock side glogging up the Ports.
