P&O Ferries are set to scrap their Dublin-Liverpool ferry route following its failure to negotiate a satisfactory berth contract with Liverpool ferry port.
The company says it will halt the service toward the end of 2023 stating that it could not agree new terms on a new berth for 2024 and beyond.
In a statement P&O Ferries said: “Without agreement with the port owner to provide a berth in Liverpool, it is impossible to continue operating on this route.
“Extensive negotiations to extend our lease or find an alternative site for our Dublin-Liverpool ferry service have been unsuccessful.”
