Description: The Infrastructure Programme was established to support and enable the Government priority of maintaining the flow of trade following the end of the EU Transition period and to ensure full border controls are in place by the end of the Staged Customs Control delivery timeline. The Programme is providing Inland Border Facilities and offices of Departure and Destination for goods being moved by transit, via the Short Straits and Holyhead, where the ports do not have the practical ability to accommodate the checks themselves. Release 1 of Delivery went live on the 31st December 2020, providing 11 temporary Inland Border facilities. Release 2 will bring the Inland Border Facility sites to full operating capacity as well as progressing the migration from temporary facilities to Strategic locations.
