106 loads originating in Valladolid province at 2.6 linear metres on average — tied with Álava for the lightest profile in Spain.
Average transit is a historical door-to-door mean, waiting time included. It is not a committed delivery lead time. How we measure transit times, zone by zone
Valladolid is automotive and components, with agri-food and Ribera and Rueda wine behind. The load profile says it all: 2.6 linear metres on average, the country's minimum alongside Álava — and both are automotive provinces.
Romania leads with 37 loads and the United Kingdom comes second at 13 — it appears in the top list of only five provinces, and here it is the footprint of automotive component supply.
Since Brexit that corridor carries export and import clearance. For components with a delivery window, that belongs in the lead time rather than at the port.
Is it suitable for small, recurring component shipments?
That is exactly the profile: 2.6 linear metres on average, the lowest in Spain alongside Álava. For that, what decides is not price per truck but slot regularity and departures leaving on time.
What does the UK corridor add today?
Export and import clearance. For automotive components on a tight window, that step can weigh more than the run itself: plan it from the start and, if the window is critical, consider a direct shipment rather than a consolidated one.
