DP World London Gateway Port has announced a new shipping service to Australia, the Mediterranean and other key markets. A joint service run by container companies CMA CGM and Hapag-Lloyd will begin calling at the London port in early January.

The new business will mean DP World London Gateway is handling all of the UK's direct services to Australia.
In addition to four port calls at cities in Australia, the service will provide the Port with more direct links between Singapore, Malaysia, India, Sri Lanka, Egypt, Malta and Italy.

Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, Group Chairman and CEO, DP World, said: "London Gateway Port is considered one of UK's biggest infrastructure projects this century."
