Contingencies in place for when poor weather affects work
Steam Packet sailings will be unaffected by works to upgrade the King Edward VIII Pier in Douglas Harbour.
That's according to the Director of Harbours as the scheme gets underway this weekend (Saturday).
The project will see alterations made to accommodate for the Steam Packet's new vessel, Manxman.
It's hoped the work can take place between scheduled sailings, something David Gooberman says has been carefully considered:
Manxman sailing cancelled following late arrival into Douglas
Vessel assisted by tug as she came into harbour
Calls for 'transitional protections' for migrants on five-year immigration path
Campaigner: "The impact here will be very different to the impact in the UK"
'No decisions have been made' over future of Ballabeg Methodist Church
Public gather to discuss future of chapel
Manxman's departure to Heysham delayed
