Swansea offers excellent communication links with easy access to the M4 and direct access to the UK railway network. Swansea is less than three miles by dual carriageway from junction 42 of the M4 motorway. In addition, as ABP's most westerly South Wales port, its location can be advantageous in terms of reducing sea-feight costs to and from many destinations.
Swansea has developed a substantial trade base with North and Western Europe, the Mediterranean and also with Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic. The port’s major cargo-handling trade is receiving and shipping steel cargoes for Corus. It is equipped with a wide range of heavy-duty handling equipment offering quayside cranes and a range of fork-lift trucks with capacities of up to 40 tonnes. Other traffics include containers, forest products, bulk cargoes, liquid bulks and general/project cargoes.
