DB Cargo UK has signed a new contract with long-standing customer Tarmac. The contract will see DB Cargo UK continue to deliver aggregates by rail from Mountsorrel Quarry in Leicestershire, from April 2016.

Using DB Cargo UK’s freight services supports Tarmac’s ambitions to increase its rail freight capacity to aid delivery of the UK’s infrastructure and road ambitions and reduce transport CO2 levels by 10 per cent per tonne by 2020.

The contract has been secured for five years and was signed aboard DB Cargo UK’s company train as it travelled from St. Pancras to Birmingham International, stopping at Mountsorrel Quarry on route.

In January 2016, DB Cargo UK began two other five-year contracts with Tarmac to transport materials for Tarmac’s aggregates businesses in the West of England and London.
