According to the traffic monitoring site Inrix, drivers are also facing delays in Dover TAP on the A20 – a traffic system designed to manage the flow of freight vehicles into the port.

Motorists are facing additional hold-ups of up to 15 minutes along Maison Dieu Road and Castle Hill Road near Dover Castle, and 20-minute delays on the A2 Jubilee Way from the Duke of York roundabout.

It comes as the Port of Dover confirms ongoing delays at the site, where it is currently taking 60 minutes for passengers to go through the boarding process.

In an update shared on social media platform X, a spokesperson said: “The processing time is still 60 minutes.

“Irish Ferries traffic is still queuing, whereas P&O Ferries and DFDS are still free flowing.

“We wish all passengers a safe journey.”
