Ferry companies, ports, and the UK Government urgently need to address the significant backlog of supplies and ensure Irish hauliers can return home for Christmas.
The Irish Road Hauliers Association is calling for a more serious response, as many lorry drivers risk being stranded in the UK over the festive period.
The crisis, exacerbated by Storm Eowyn technical issues, and the prolonged closure of Holyhead Port, threatens to prevent many drivers from making it home in time for the yuletide season.
IRHA President Ger Hyland is urging ferry companies and UK authorities to take immediate action.
