DFDS ship out of action after harbour collision
DFDS Seaways expects the Dover Seaways to be back in service within six days after an accident as the ferry left Dover on Sunday.
The cross channel ferry was evacuated on Sunday morning after it hit a harbour wall at Dover.
Four of the 320 passengers were taken to hospital for checks following the incident as the ship was leaving for Dunkirk.
A DFDS spokesman said: "We have now been able to conduct a preliminary inspection and the ship is on its way to dry dock. We expect the ship to be back in service in four – six days, but will verify timings once they have been confirmed.
"We are working closely with all affected customers to assist with their queries and travel plans."
