Dover braces for a busy weekend

The Port of Dover is ready for a busy weekend

The port of Dover is preparing for 18,000 travellers between Friday and Sunday

Ferry passengers travelling through the Port of Dover during the bank holiday getaway have been warned to expect long queues and possible delays amid EU border checks.

The port is preparing for 18,000 travellers between Friday and Sunday, and warned that the busiest periods each day will be between 6am and about 1pm.

Ferry operators expect Saturday to be the port’s busiest day of the year so far, with more than 8,000 travellers.

Meanwhile, warm weather is expected to draw large crowds to seaside towns and the county's beaches this Bank Holiday weekend.
