Courier service across Colchester and surrounding areas
Colchester's garrison — the largest military base in the UK — and the University of Essex's Knowledge Gateway research park generate courier demand for military logistics and tech firms. The A12 is the key route to London but suffers congestion near Chelmsford during peak hours. Hauly drivers use the A120 to bypass the A12 and reach Stansted Airport faster, and the A134 for cross-country routes to Sudbury.
