Cross channel ferries resume
16th April 2009 Ferry services from Dover have resumed after French fishermen ended their blockade of Calais and Dunkirk ports.Thousands of holidaymakers and hauliers trying to cross the Channel had faced a third day of disruption in a dispute over EU fishing quotas.
A blockade of Dunkirk was also lifted, so protesters could discuss an offer of cash aid from the French government. The port of Boulogne remains closed.
P&O and SeaFrance ferries have resumed. Norfolkline is also in operation.
The ports had been blockaded since Tuesday.
