The Road Haulage Association says it welcomes DFDS Seaways' announcement that it will improve its ferry route from Rosyth, Scotland, to Zeebrugge, Belgium.  The firm aims to run the route on a freight-only basis, with four sailings a week rather than the previous four.  DFDS says the move will mean "dramatically improved" freight capacity and better service to its freight customers.  The new service will start in mid-December 2010.  "We are delighted that DFDS has acknowledged the importance of the route for freight traffic," said Phil Flanders, RHA director for Scotland.  "For Scottish hauliers in particular, this route represents a vital gateway to the rest of Europe."
