Industry Leaders Call For Investment In Freight Infrastructure
The UK logistics sector is calling on the government to support its growth, citing its integral role in achieving economic ambitions. With £87bn of UK GVA dependent on air cargo, the sector is urging the government to maintain the current fuel duty rate and reform business rates to encourage investment in warehousing and freight infrastructure. According to Logistics UK, the sector is uniquely positioned to unlock regional growth and drive the government’s reindustrialisation agenda. This was reported by Air Cargo News.
