Hazardous Goods - The Channel Tunnel has been designed to be one of the safest transport systems. However, like other forms of transport, it allows the carriage of a wide variety of goods classified as 'hazardous', subject to strict regulations.
Eurotunnel Freight account holders can download Eurotunnel's ADR policy using online services or simply access ADR information via the online guide.
This allows operators to make sure that any hazardous goods being carried adhere to the conditions of travel. If you are not an account holder and you would like information on travelling with hazardous goods with Eurotunnel or if you would like to order an electronic copy of the practical guide, please contact your local Freight Commercial Department using the contact details at the top of his page.
