  Harbour Developments

Readers will be glad to hear that the contract for the next phase of the harbor works to comprise the piling and extending of the inner third of Duffys Pier has been awarded and works are due to start shortly. We understand that the contract has been awarded to Keatings.  On another positive note training was recently provided to various relevant local persons including the Harbour Master and members of the Ferry Service Crew on the operation of the storm gates. Those taking part were glad to see that a 'fail safe' option is available whereby the gates can be operated in the absence of electrical power by disabling the rams and using tractors pulling cables directly attached to the gates to open or close them. This was a concern expressed from the outset and it is reassuring that it has been addressed.
