Toyota: stop planned production for 5 plants in Europe

Toyota Motor Europe has announced that production from five European plants will be interrupted for several days between late April and early May. From the 5th month of the year, production will resume at reduced rates, to better manage the supply of components available in the earthquake which occurred on 11 March 2011 in Japan.

In countries where possible, the interruption was planned to coincide with holiday periods expected shortly. The decision involves the Toyota plant in Burnaston, Adapazari and Onnaing. The measure will also apply to plants that produce engines: Jelcz-Laskowice and one in Deeside, Wales.
