Location

Merseyside: Port of Liverpool

Description

Peel Ports owns and operates six of the UK’s most important ports (Port of Liverpool, Heysham Port, Manchester Ship Canal, Medway (Sheerness / Chatham), Clydeport (Greenock, Hunterston, Ardrossan) and Great Yarmouth). It also operates a container terminal in Dublin. In relation to the Port of Liverpool, the port’s central location means that multimodal connection services via road and rail enable cargo to get where it needs to be via the most efficient route possible. To further improve the port's infrastructure, The Mersey Docks and Harbour Company will shortly be launching a competitive tender process for the award of a design and build contract to upgrade the T1 Railhead at the Port of Liverpool.
