'Exciting times' for the Steam Packet, says Harmer
In addition to the new landing stage being built in Liverpool for the Steam Packet, Heysham is also due a refurb over the next two or three years.
That from Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer, who's been speaking following Friday's ground-breaking ceremony for the new facility on Merseyside.
That's due to be completed by summer next year, at a cost of £38 million.
Mr Harmer says the work at Heysham is in the pipeline:
