• Ipswich campaigner Diana Dooner is calling on all hauliers and drivers who use the Port of Felixstowe to contact her with ideas on how its services could be improved.
Mother-of-three Dooner is campaigning for better services for drivers throughout the UK. She is questioning hauliers about problems with accommodation and parking at the port.
Port of Felixstowe managing director Derek Harrington concedes that there is a problem with overnight parking: "We do get congestion of vehicles staying overnight—there can be 350 and it's difficult to keep control over them. We have to do something about it." This might include charging for parking, he says.
The DOT has asked Dooner to submit details of her European survey of driver facilities.
Drivers and hauliers with comments about Felixstowe can contact her on (0473) 741223.
