About Getlink
Getlink SE (Euronext Paris: GET), through its subsidiary
Eurotunnel, is the concession holder until 2086 for the Channel
Tunnel infrastructure and operates Truck Shuttles and Passenger
Shuttles (cars and coaches) between Folkestone (UK) and Calais
(France). Since 31 December 2020 Eurotunnel has been developing the
smart border to ensure that the Tunnel remains the fastest, most
reliable, easiest and most environmentally friendly way to cross
the Channel. Since it opened in 1994, close to 500 million people
and more than 102 million vehicles have travelled through the
Channel Tunnel. This unique land link, which carries a quarter of
trade between the Continent and the United Kingdom, has become a
vital link, reinforced by the ElecLink electricity interconnector
installed in the Tunnel, which helps to balance energy needs
between France and the United Kingdom. Getlink completes its
sustainable mobility services with its rail freight subsidiary
Europorte. Committed to "low-carbon" services that control their
impact on the environment (through its activities, the Group avoids
the equivalent of 1.9 million tonnes of CO2 per year), Getlink has
made the place of people, nature and territories a central
concern.
