Modal Shift Programme (MSP)

The Modal Shift Programme (MSP) Trial was introduced on 1st September 2023 to help increase the financial attractiveness of rail for import laden containers. Due to the success of moving containers from road to rail, the MSP Trial has been extended to the end of December 2025.

The financial incentive for imports routed by rail is paid for by a relatively small charge on all import laden containers coming through DP World Southampton. 

MSP aims to encourage supply chain partners to actively choose rail for their supply chain shipments, therefore helping cargo owners and the wider UK industry to reduce carbon emissions and achieve net zero aspirations. 

For further information, please see our latest customer advisory.
