Public Transport and Recruitment Challenges Discussed During Heywood Visit
ITAL Transport recently welcomed Heywood and Middleton North MP Elsie Blundell to its premises at Birch Business Park in Heywood, where discussions focused on the vital role the transport sector plays in the local economy and the challenges businesses face in attracting and retaining staff.
As a leading provider of road transport and freight solutions, ITAL Transport operates across the UK and Europe, supporting customers with reliable, efficient and customer-focused transport services. The visit provided an opportunity to showcase the company’s operations and discuss some of the key issues currently affecting the industry.
During the visit, Ms Blundell met with members of the ITAL Transport team and gained first-hand insight into the day-to-day operations that keep goods moving efficiently across the UK and international markets.
Speaking after the visit, Ms Blundell highlighted the importance of transport businesses to the region’s economy and emphasised the need for improved transport links to support future growth.
A key issue discussed was the availability of public transport to employment sites within the borough. Better connectivity would help transport firms attract talent, improve access to career opportunities for local residents and support the continued growth of the sector.
The transport industry remains one of the area’s most important employers, with businesses such as ITAL Transport playing a significant role in supporting supply chains, facilitating trade and contributing to economic development across Greater Manchester and beyond.
