The UK Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) group announced the launch of Nuclear Transport Solutions (NTS) in the UK.
The new specialist nuclear transport organization will specialize in the operational, commercial, engineering, legal, and regulatory expertise that underpin nuclear transport and logistics operations.
The creation of NTS follows the NDA’s decision last year to create a single nuclear transport division to support its mission to clean up the UK’s earliest nuclear sites.

As a centre of excellence for nuclear transport, packaging and logistics expertise, the NTS will also use its expertise to provide commercial activities in the UK and overseas, by operating Direct Rail Services (DRS) and Pacific Nuclear Transport Ltd (PNTL), which will continue to deliver rail and shipping services.
NTS also provides consultancy services for complex nuclear transport challenges, and transport services for customers outside of the nuclear sector.
We’re proud of how we use our expertise to make the world safer and more sustainable. Whether that’s by supporting the clean-up of the UK’s nuclear legacy, using our high-security shipping capabilities to support global security goals, or providing low-carbon rail freight solutions that takes more lorries off our roads,
…said Seth Kybird, Chief Executive of NTS.
